Woodland…
(from Charmaine Choudry’s painting…)
Sparse, bluish uprights of now healthy,
Supple, minimal forestry
Reaches at sunrise air.
Slim, high limbs
Farm stripes with stretches
Of amber, as daylight strives
To infiltrate from a morning sky…
Charred, blackened silhouettes of once healthy,
Lithe, vertical forestry
Claws at acrid air.
Harsh horror limbs,
Mere shadows of branches,
Pose like devilish knives
Against a putrid war-ravaged sky…

What might have happened to the artist’s splendid forest during
World War 1…
