		<description><![CDATA[This is the balance of the commitment ceremony.  There are an odd number of vows.  In the service, Mark and I alternated reading sentences in the vows, starting over again when we'd gone thru it once.  That way, we each said all of the vows.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the earliest pieces I still have.  Written for my good friend Robert's 40th birthday, it is matched in structure with the piece I wrote for his 50th.  I had sworn I wouldn't go to New York to celebrate, in part because of lack of funds.  Glad I remembered what was important!]]></description>
