This song for SATBB choir a cappella sets Fendell's simple, alliterative
poem by exploring the beauty and expressivity of harmony, dissonance, and
meaning in each word. Tonal centers shift throughout and focus on phrases to
the point of abstraction, meditating on the general theme of love, its myopic
nature, its intensity, its fragility, its capriciousness, and its
evanescence.
Love lasts like a lily,
Tender on Time's trail;
Breathing burning beauty,
Fragrant, fine, and frail.
Fendell, Solomon J.D. "Love Lasts Like a Lily." Poetry Magazine
May 1918: 77.
