For the WordPress weekly photo challenge: Cherry On Top

WordPress Photo Challenge: Artists are inspired by and capture the world around us: sculptors immortalize people with statues; painters record events in their masterpieces. What about the other way around? For this week’s theme, find inspiration in a piece of art, and go further: imitate it.
I took this photograph yesterday, a lucky discovering in a public walled garden as one of my favourite paintings is Van Gogh’s Irises.

It’s still early and the light
from the dimming sun
is fading out of sight.
Clouds cast their net but
a stream of yellow beams
seeps to illuminate time.
A whisp of cold with a
crisp caress chills as the
sun sinks behind the hills.
Darkness will pull up
the moon and born is a
velvet sky adorning the stars.
For the WPC: Time
For the WPC: Ornate
For the WPC: Careful
For WPC: (Extra)ordinary
The peeled back leaf
Revealing time
Evolving and
Exposing the gift
My many yesterdays
Are not my tomorrow
The tumbled leaf
Doesn’t chase and follow
The winds of yesterday
Have sailed on by
The moving clouds
Roll across the sky
The stain of yesterday
Has washed away
The rain did pass
Leaving less to say
For WPC: Change
