Childhood (Dance of Unknowing)

---

“You run the frozen field You scatter the crows The magpies and the crows In ones, in twos, in flight They go spiralling to the heavens And I in the meadow Look up With winter eyes Mesmerised by your boundless capacity to love"   Reflections on childhood - as a parent and as a brother. Life is so much simpler as a child and yet, at the same time, we are barely even touched by it hence the title 'Dance of Unknowing'. The piece is a celebration of and a nostalgia for that innocence that we can never return to.
