September Sunshine
 
Seeing the sunlight filter through
The fretted network of the leaves
It seems that these are painters' trees
Brushed in a century ago.
 
And yet it is the trees
Who teach the painters what they know
And the painters who tell us
How to see
The fretted network of the leaves
Lift in the breeze
To let the sunshine through.
 
Provence
Here and now
Or a century ago,
September sunshine warms our limbs
Sunlit impressions filter through
The fretted network of a century ago.
