Carl Larsson: Apple Blossom 1894

just a poem I wrote about his painting. total assumptions tho, i have no idea what this picture really is depicting prolly just a very sweet, happy girl in a beautiful garden.

Her pink bonnet barley covering her blonde curls

That green dress she always wears

The dreary house behind her where her family resides

Though she is too young to understand much

She knows that what her parents do to her is bad

that she deserves love and compassion

Her only escape is at meal times where she sneaks off to the garden

It's full of thistles and weeds

but that is no matter to her

she finds joy in imagining the thistles and weeds away

she invisions an apple blossom and green green grass

This was her heaven, her happiness

She found so much delight in examining every bit of nature and feeling the wind in her hair

Hearing the noisy birds and watching the slowness of a snail making its way across the garden

Perhaps God gave her this one joy in her life because everytime she had to returne to that abusive house

she had strngeth to go on just because she looked  forward to that little piece of heaven

her only piece of heaven
