Voice - soprano Belinda Evans - www.belindaevans.co.uk Harp - Brenda Dor-Groot - www.brendadorgroot.com Recording, mixing & mastering by Mark Rose @ Rokit Studios, London (rokitstudios.net) I had a dove and the sweet dove died; And I had thought it died of grieving, O, what could it grieve for? It's feet were tied in a silken thread of my own hand's weaving; Sweet little red feet! Why should you die why should you leave me, sweet bird, why? You lived alone in the forest tree, why, pretty thing! would you not live with me? I kissed you oft and gave you white peas why not live sweetly why not live sweetly, sweetly, sweetly, sweetly as in the green trees? -- John Keats
