Mental pictures inspired by the surrounding and the poet Emily Dickinson's verses are often tinged with Nieminen's works. Nieminen describes his second quartet, as follows: The quartet was created out of the need to describe childhood memories and in distinction to polar nights. The conception of time is present in both of them. Mental pictures turning to the past and the stillness of polar nights in the darkness of which time goes and the amount of light increases without noticing it..
