THE ORCHARD BY NIGHT

Michael Edwards

THE ORCHARD BY NIGHT

 

 

 

Overhead the orchard’s boughs

dyed black with deepest shades of night,

and laden they with seasons fruit

in filigree against the sky.

          HI MICHAEL ~ Love the Painting and the Poem equally ~ they are symbiotic ! I know from experience that Orchards in the Evening are a perfect Lovers Tryst ~ perfumed with the scent of Apples. Thanks for sharing ~ BRIAN
