Home From the Forest

And as he lay there sleeping
A vision did appear
Upon his mantle shining
A face of one so dear
Who had loved him in the springtime
Of a long-forgotten year
When the wildflowers did bloom
In the forest

Gordon Lightfoot

Beautiful shadow and lighting, Jay! I absolutely love the darkness and the color tone of this. And then that lovely pop of greenery. Fantastic.
