Analysis of In The Orchard Street Gallery



A sparkling stream
Mirrors rose,yellow,
And pink blossoms...
Draping as if from a vase.

Another displayed a vase
White as snow with buds
Soft and tender expressing
A touch of pleasure.

Followed by a third displaying
Soft white skin encircling dark
Brownish eyes.

A visit confirming that art is very
Necessary for the human spirit.
