About the Vibrant Meadow

I was wandering a meadow, Rather far away from home— Still I had no destination, Save for this, to simply roam. And so it was I wandered, Then I wandered even more— Discovering the grandest things In my efforts to explore. And about the vibrant meadow, I discovered something new— The daffodils were yellow, And the periwinkles, blue! So it was I learned a lesson, As I did, when but a child; No artist has yet fashioned— What it is painted in the Wild!

And I, being an artist, can attest to this - there is no WAY to get that kind of color!

My dad was an artist. I admire that ability, so closely related to writing—particularly poetry as we labor to paint pictures with words :)
