This piece was written in 2012 for the service at St John's Cathedral, Brisbane commemoratingthe 20th anniversary of the ordination of women to the priesthood in the Anglican Church ofAustralia. Flowing lines rise gradually towards the "fragrance" to which the text refers later, theblooming and blossoming of spring and the heralding of a new dawn, for the ministry of womenand men. The middle section exhorts in dramatic homophony which gradually calms to release"fragrance", and then repeats the ideasof the opening. The piece dies away, as if lover andbeloved were disappearing into a mist (or a cloud of incense!).
