Countryside Contemplation...

the tapering horizon is patched with pink and gray and their threads are sewn into the blue and white ceiling of the day a twisted grandfather tree has branches gnarled in every way and the symphony of spring grass places ripples on the meadow as it plays the three daisies before me move about with the wind and do ballet while I only have these words of black and white to try and convey these ever-changing colors that are bundled by nature’s blossoming bouquet
