The bright sunlight faded the colours of the blossoms <br /> <br />and cast a haze over distant brackened hills. <br /> <br />The master artist knows with all his art and skills <br /> <br />the deepest secrets of that coloured tapestry of life <br /> <br />lie in the dark shadows low beneath the trees. <br /> <br />And under hawthorn bushes' sharply shining leaves <br /> <br />the finely scented earth in warmth and moisture melts <br /> <br />the essence of all beauty and sets it free to breathe.<br /><br />David Taylor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/breathing-dark-beauty/
