‘Under the Lemon Trees’ by Claude Monet (1884)
The wind blows
A light breeze
Right through
The lemon trees
The mountains above
The trees below
Their leaves wave
A simple hello
A river flows
A drop of rain
Colour sprouts
On a little lane
The flowers grow
On the ground
The birds tweet
As leaves scatter all around
