Burns Clear Dear Fading Fields Flies Peggy Poems Skimming Swallow Thick Winds
Now Westlin Winds
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a beautiful and evocative poem penned by the renowned Scottish poet Robert Burns in the late 18th century. This verse, also known as "To a Louse," paints a vivid picture of the changing seasons and the passage of time. The image before you is a stunning print of this timeless work, taken from the pages of an old, leather-bound book. The words, carefully etched in elegant script, seem to dance off the page, inviting the viewer to immerse themselves in the poetry and history of this beloved poem. The title, "Now Westlin Winds," is written in bold, gold letters at the top of the page, drawing the eye to the poem below. The words themselves are set against a backdrop of a clear, blue sky, with the fading green and yellow fields stretching out in the distance. The image transports us back in time, to a simpler era when the natural world held a greater allure and the changing of the seasons was a cause for reflection and contemplation. The poem itself speaks of the arrival of the west wind, signaling the end of the clear, summer evenings. The poet reflects on the transience of life and the inevitability of change, as the swallow flies thickly through the air and the fields begin to fade into autumn hues. The mention of "Peggy, dear," adds a personal touch, reminding us that even as the world around us changes, the bonds of love and friendship remain constant. This print is not only a beautiful work of art, but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the rich literary heritage of Scotland and the enduring power of poetry to capture the human experience. Whether displayed in a home, office, or library, this print is sure to inspire and delight, and serve as a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the natural world and the passage of time.
