Garden at Giverny

Garden at Giverny (Take II--As)

As purplish as lavender to bottom

as brownish as green shade atop

one may get a new aesthetics

out of differences from details

As fusing seeing too near

with seeing from far too

and seeing to the left (west, south)

with seeing from the right (east, north)

As colors are that powerfully resonant

they can't be kept within the lines of shapes

and transcend an earthy classical palette

into new age of modernist individuality

As if the sun has been heliocentrically reinvented

and not only in cosmology but in painting as well.
