Poetry and Pictures - Weather
English Impressionist painter Alfred Sisley (1839-1899) painted outside. He tried to capture realistically how sunlight fell on the landscape. He was a friend to Monet and Renoir and lived for most of his life in France. In this painting of Saint-Mammes, France there are just a few small cumulus clouds in the sky.

Foxglove

Foxglove,
with your speckled throat,
do you sing clear, silent notes
to winging busy, busy bees,
"come partake my honey, please"?
