Almond Blossoms

Wikipedia

White almond blossoms
awakening my senses
promises of spring
~
Almond blossoms dance
serenity in blue sky
celebrating birth
~
Awakening joy
flowering tree spring arrives
my heart rejoices

  8. Your poem leaves me with the scent of almond blossoms and the milky taste of the fruit in my mouth. I've seen this painting so many time, but I have never thought of the scent of the blossoms... until now.

  10. Vincent also celebrated his godson's (his brother Theo's son) birth in this painting. This poem beautifully celebrates renewal and hope.
