Oil paintings I painted about 1995
Paradise I ramble and marvel on the alluring paradise I reside Tall green pine trees spear to reach to the heavens gratified A Few scattered pine that have lost the will to survive Sounds of the wildlife the forest obscures and they thrive The wondrous mountain range with tall timber surrounds me, enticing to explore Lush green, brown grass and enchanting flowers in bloom I spoor The crystal clear rivers and ponds stocked with a rainbow of fish in sight The clear blue sky with scattered clouds and birds in flight Through the high brush, I saunter enjoying my paradise, below I catch sight of a couple, midway in a wallow in the meadow Feasting on salal and brush I rush to the underbrush At a distance I hear the bugle of an old elk calling and gathering his harem I wonder if I should challenge the old elk but his way up on the rim By: Eve Roper 1/24/2015
