April Snow: Music by Barry McKimm

Listen to the music on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWp5Onaqkec Composition by Barry McKimm developed from the poem April Snow by Jay The poem appears in Poetica Review, Summer 2023, Issue 18 http://poeticareview.co.uk/ The poem begins:
“Seasons drift askew/ across the equinox/ Once we could set our clocks by them/ Tick, tock/ Clouds hang akimbo, stiff/ like ancient bats/ leaking last liquids/ Drip, drop/
and ends with a reference to Greta Thunberg’s warning, “Our house is on fire.”
