Description

"Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet,
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams." ~W.B. Yeats


All images and textures used are my own- the foreground and trees are from a photograph I took in the grounds of Battle Abbey, Village of Battle, England, the blackbird was photographed perched on the battlements of Pevensey Castle, Village of Pevensey, also England, the lantern is from the Monk's Kitchen, Glastonbury Abbey, Glastonbury, England, and the Church Lychgate is from the Church Yard across from the Blue Pigeon Inn, Worth, County Kent, England!

You know, it has some originality to it, it feels like it's an expression of yourself, and it is VERY beautiful: the vastness of the things un-said,the mystery beyond the plain... I find it spellbinding and endless like a star in the night sky

She's dressed as for a wedding with her soft and pretty gown and the garland of flowers in her hair. The bird perched on her left hand leads me to believe she is more than an ordinary human girl and I also surmise it is a romantic rendezvous she is keeping. As it is occurring at this hour of the night, perhaps there are those who disapprove. I would like to imagine a happy meeting and some intense passion, chaste or un occurs, but I'll bet this girl is doom haunted and what happens will be tragic. He is there to tell her it is over and she strikes him down or learns that he has been killed by members of her clan and vows vengeance. A beautiful composition - I so enjoy when dark deeds are to be done in beautiful surroundings.
