woman and child forever wade
through Monet’s green/gray brushstrokes
merging with the artist eye
in all of us
the boy holding poppies picked
pale red profusion
angling
down
hilly
canvas
ribbon on hat the same red
the boy a poppy
one with nature
mother with umbrella casually
stylishly perched on shoulder
more blue than the sky
delicately gliding through
this place of passion
keeping her cool
another woman and child
on the top of hill
blending trees’ darkness
and grey white clouds
drift from
edge to
edge
of this particular view
and we wonder
who are these summer folk
so full of poppy breath?
