Rooftop

Rooftop
By John R. Greenwood
port town pictures color our world 
stacked edge to edge 
each chimney brick bears his weight
no finer eyeliner graces a windows frame
saturated planks of burnt umber laid out in longitudes
delight the senses
sooth the eye
breathing out across rooftops
vivid 
endless

    1. I took this in Portsmouth, New Hampshire a couple of years ago. Then I cranked up the saturation to get that painted effect.

  3. Such beauty does not need eyeliner or "rouge" but I like the exaggerated color ... it IS a delight!
