Weekday Recitation

out of the particular
                  a birds wing
                  a waterfall
                  some things beyond
                                the ordinary

of moments past
              drama of the season
              atmosphere in the soul
               sharp outlines
               softness of vision

a philosophy of nature
                                 spontaneous pleasure
                                 in
                                   an overflow of feeling
                                     portents of proportions
vistas glimpsed
         in elements&symbols
dramatic dreams
made real
       by
         discerning
                       eyes

natural beauty 
           sudden
                 & shaped

        from eye to brush
            unconstrained    picturesque
              in sublime  raptures

particular places
          poetical portraits
           with pleasing effects
            romantic feelings
                                  beyond
                                     the everyday
topography &textual detail
 in light
           & movement
  ambitions so complex
washed
   in colour&feeling

reflections in water
      purposed in passing
      a mass in shadow
       solemn grandeur
masterly executed
       of
          sentiments
