Additions:
The T&V as mentioned before aren't great. It's obvious by the 2nd counterpoint variation that I'm out of ideas despite only needing 8 measures for each. (Re: the title -- the opening motive is derived from a student composition I critiqued for an acquaintance about a year ago. It's since been used by many others on this Net music forum, including projects as diverse as a progressive metal tune I recorded keyboards for...)

By contrast, songs almost write themselves; you can always find more nuances in the text just by reading. (Not that my settings necessarily take advantage of everything that's there...) The postcards fall somewhere in between. The pictoral scenes implied some motives that seemed to work well, but putting them into a musical trio took skills I'm far from perfecting. All in all, a good learning experience.
