High above the prairie grass and buds I saunter to meet the close of day... Nightingales echo their welcome song As brocade of Summer's finery Bedecks the canyons with moonstone hues. My gaze is lost in this eve's marquee Of auroral light that dances bright ; Where rocky hills and jasmines parade All aflame, beneath this single flow, With ever breathless rhythm and glide. Each creature pauses in tranquil awe— I am just another soul enthralled By this portrait designed on canvas, As her primeval beauty is well drawn Through splashed colors from night's fragrant heat! ~ For Broken Wing's Form P Contest Theme: picture 5/29/2017

Such a beautiful poem, and I have to say, the poem and the painting are such a match, I like reading the poem first, then read it after looking at the art to see if I see more in the words! So lovely!
