Country House

Breakfast
A view of the lake
Surrounded by frosted grass

The singular willow
On the waters edge
It takes one to the ballet

To those elegant and slim dancers
Who invest in us with their passionate movement
Pronounce their beauty beyond the humanity of gestures

The bare carcasses of an old tree
Reminders of the effects of age
Demonstrative of the scarecrows we become

Earlier there was a pink sheen 
The effect of the sun slowly taking it's place
In the heavenly morning’s silver-grey sky


Elbowed Out - Love of Listening to Michelangelo
