Poem...
Ode to a Nightingale
My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains
My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk.
Or emptied some dull opiate in the drains
One minute past, and Lethe-wards had sunk
'Tis not through envy of thy happy lot,
But being too happy in thy happiness,-
That thou, light-winged Dryad of the trees,
In some melodious plot
Of beechen green and shadow numberless,
Singest of Summer in full-throated case.
John Keats

So sweet. I liked that you included the poem to illustrated. The soft "drowsy" hues were just perfect for treatment of this subject.
Oh I love that picture - I want it!
Beautiful Cream! I love how you did the birds, very idyllic!
