Impressions Of A View
A base of periwinkle blue
covered with thick strokes of indigo
with smudges of powder blue,
a proposal.
I accept…
watching the colors
changing hues
as they run together
swirling and glowing
catching the last rays
of light at gloaming.
A base of bistre brown
covered in burlywood
with thick almond accents
dashes of citron here and there
along with dandelion yellow
covering the ground.
A few slate gray lines
with dark greens
hinting at boundaries
between tree and landscape
an impression soon washed out
by the black of night.

This is my animation (no name.)
We are to paint a poem like an impressionist. Written with my friends at dVerse~Poets Pub.
emergent colour fading into blackness of night…and so the cycle goes…acceptance is the way.

This makes me want to drag out my paints and get to work…only thing I need is a little more time. Really love what happens in the 2nd stanza.

Very colorful with all the splashes of spring and then washing out by the night ~ I like the positive acceptance ~

I liked the animation the black of night washing out the impressions of a boundary between the tree and landscape at the end.
