The Potato Harvest, 1898 José Julio de Souza Pinto
.
Autumn Fires
.
In the other gardens
And all up the vale,
From the autumn bonfires
See the smoke trail!
.
Pleasant summer over
And all the summer flowers,
The red fire blazes,
The grey smoke towers.
.
Sing a song of seasons!
Something bright in all!
Flowers in the summer,
Fires in the fall!
..............Robert Louis Stevenson

I love the painting, especially the girl's rosy cheeks. And Robert Louis Stevenson has been my favorite poet since I was five years old.

SvaraRaderaI don't remember when I first "met" R.L. Stevenson - but I've enjoyed his poems for very long.
Yes, the painting is lovely!
