Impressionistic Eve
Strong blocks of color
display the brazened buildings
by the peaceful canal,
where yellow brushstrokes
illustrate their tranquil reflections.
Dark flecks of paint grace the bridge,
depicting blurred images of people
on a quiet romantic eve.
While the centered spire kisses
the ardent Amsterdam sky.
As a glorious Holland day,
comes to a beautiful close.
