A Call in the Night
Like a shrill cry in a silent fight,
The phone rang in the dead, one night
Falling off my bed, suddenly with fear
I picked it up as if it was a nightmare
Before I spoke, heard a child’s soft voice so low
“Hello daddy”, she said, “It’s you and I know
Wanted to speak, just once to you
Coz mummy is leaving and I know not what to do”

Here is the piece! It's finally done. Please let me know what you think of it even if you hate it. Any and all thoughts are appreciated. I hope you enjoy what I've done with your words. The program I use doesn't allow for words to be said but the overall feel of the piece is there. I have a PDF but I'd have to send it through email cause this site doesn't allow the sending of PDF's as far as I know.
I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you very much for letting me use your poem. I have written about a minute of the piece since I got your email, so I'm roughly a quarter of the way done. I think it sounds quite beautiful and the music compliments the text quite nicely. Once I finish I will send you a PDF of the score as well as the audio file. Hopefully when I finish the piece you will enjoy the piece as much as I do. Is there a better way to reach you so I can send you the score and music? It says that you have disabled messages from being sent to you.
Thanks again,
Curtis

Hello Tanmayi Mukundan, I am a composer from Michigan and I was wondering if it would be okay to set your text of Close Your Eyes, My Angel to music. It would be a choral piece, and I would really like to use your work. Sadly this is the only way I know of to contact you, but let me know what your thoughts are and if I have your permission.
