The picture on the parlor wall Framed, not too big, and not too small Charcoal stems, red poppies— that’s all Some flowers— short, but others, tall Mom found it in a poster rack Loved it the most of the whole stack It’d beautify the simplest shack (Yet then my mom would want it back) If you know who the artist is We would like to support their biz To hear that someone says it’s his If we’re asked if it’s lovely?— ‘tis!

I think everyone has a fave on the wall, perhaps one that others don't see the value or artistry in, nevertheless special to us
