Airlie Beach #1

oil on canvas 30x25cm

Lassitude

    I LAID me down beside the sea,
    Endless in blue monotony;
    The clouds were anchored in the sky,
    Sometimes a sail went idling by.

    Upon the shingles on the beach
    Gray linen was spread out to bleach,
    And gently with a gentle swell
    The languid ripples rose and fell.

    I certainly like the glare and reflective quality of the sun on the water.
