Undergrowth with two figures. Van Gogh. Contest sponsor Dilly Dally

posted 14th February 25

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In a forest glade where no shadows fall.
An emerging scene of a lovers tryst
Amid yellow broom and the elm trees tall
They embraced each other and gently kissed

She’s just a young girl, he, almost a score
Their romance is new, innocent and pure
And among the blooms on the forest floor
The fledgling pair find passionate allure 

Fused in each others arms desire grows strong
With feelings of rapture right from the start
The lovers engage, like in an old song
Vowing to cherish and never to part

There in the woodland they plighted their troth
Amongst the tall elms and dense undergrowth
