A Humble Home

The cloud spreads over A humble, humorous hut Built amidst shrubs Lone as an island guarded by tiny, tall trees …a peasant’s abode coming home to rest after the day’s duty, tired …a peasant farmer cottage with peasant coming home with a big hoe …hung on his shoulder …for Abe Lopez’s contest on Van Gogh’s paintings, the title is ‘Cottage with Peasant Coming Home http://www.vangoghgallery.com/catalog/Painting/77/Cottage-with-Peasant-Coming- Home.html

You conjure up some great images here Adeleke. Love the phrase 'humourous hut'. Got a real sense of the painting from your poem
