Sunday Afternoon
Sunday Afternoon
(After a painting by George Seurat)
Tiny people, men and women,
In a park, by a lake.
Picnicking and enjoying life
On a Sunday Afternoon at the Grand Jatte.
All figures wearing hats
On a sunny day.
19th century Parisians
Unaware of the atrocities that lie ahead ...
Tiny people, men and women
Made of dots, carefully and precisely.
Vivid colors, high contrast,
Such a masterpiece of meticulous quality,
From vermillion to lavender,
From the cool pond to the leafy trees,
Lies a hidden charm.
In the tiny points and dots.
