boat acrylic by pat fry...

poetry for boat & apples...

Boat & apples
Travels
Along the sea road
In the air fog wind
Sun moon snow & rain
Apple trees desolate
Apples on the ground
A
Boat
Running off
To Paris
Hemingway Fitzgerald the Bookseller's dance
Cole Porter Lily Bazaar Gaga & all
Those
Travels
Along the sea road
Boat & apples in the fog
Painting a village across the bay
