With rue my heart is laden

With rue my heart is laden, 2018-2023. Acrylic on canvas, 10x10 inches 

With rue my heart is laden/With golden friends I had/For many a rose-lipped maiden/And many a lightfoot lad.

Near brooks too broad for leaping/The lightfoot lads are laid/The rose-lipped girls are sleeping/In fields where roses fade.       ~A.E.Houseman
