Imagine !

Having a Matisse colour my wall
or an O'Keeffe in my hall !

A learned ode  from Emily
or chatting with Adelaide,over tea.

To talk of art & poetry ..
for a while..just you and me

A glass of wine..
                 Rioja ,fine
and a piece of Brie..
                 beside the sea

To listen close to your voice..
read those ' favourites' of my choice

This has such a quiet stillness about it. It exudes a dream of peace in a hurried world. Very nice. Congratulations on placing in Christie Reynolds Fabulous Fantasy contest.
