Crowned with Roses

Clear was the heaven

and blue, and May, with her cap

crowned with roses, stood in her

holiday dress in the fields, and

the wind and the brooklet

murmured gladness & peace,

God's-peace!

~ Henry W. Longfellow ~

The roses are from the cover of a book

featuring Longfellow's poetry, from my

collection. I chose to leave the worn areas.

These roses aged beautifully!

Painting is poetry

that is seen rather than felt,

and poetry is painting that is

felt rather than seen.
