Vaughan Williams - Silent Noon: Learning Video - Line by line

Your hands lie open in the long fresh grass,
The finger points look through like rosy blooms:
Your eyes smile peace.
The pasture gleams and glooms
'Neath billowing skies that scatter and amass.
All round our nest, far as the eye can pass,
Are golden kingcup fields with silver edge
Where the cow-parsley skirts the hawthorn hedge.
'Tis visible silence, still as the hour glass.
Deep in the sunsearched growths the dragon-fly
Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky:
So this winged hour is dropt to us from above.
Oh! clasp we to our hearts, for deathless dower,
This close-companioned inarticulate hour
When twofold silence was the song of love.

Gosh this is terrific, I just discovered it. I moved away from the city and can't find a voice instructor where I am now. I had worked on it in the past but can really take advantage of this. Thanks from Washington state, USA.
