Still Life With Melons & Peaches: (Inspired By Edouard Manet's Painting 1866)) Poem by DM W

O light gleams upon incandescent white
And silver of pristine, flowing tablecloth.
Its solid textures contrast subtly with the
Soft, dream-like rose of snow, that lies gracefully
Upon it. O witness exhilirating
Gamut of robust, luminous greens and bright
Yellows.The strong, firm black bottle provides
A reference point to settle the restless
Eye and anchor the wavering mind; amidst
Tender, fleeting beauty.It's a masterpiece!
