The Sun Rested On Western Slopes
Three storey Queen Anne house
set far back behind green yards
With far reaching sparkling views
Profusion of flora fruit-laden vines
Chickens clucking near front gate
Polished wood with leaded glass
Double doors powdered gauzed
Elaborate deep wine wallpaper
Delicate face framed in red hair
Highlights vermillion green eyes
High waisted muslin gown flows
French words rolled out lyrically
Perfumed with blooming flowers
Clever cat buried in feather down
Favorite spot ancient tree trunk
