a moment suspended in a golden afternoon

hand-drawn lines in pastel blues

Within the flickering glow of a cave fire

brimming with a pink concoction

rendered in expressive line sketch

It evokes boundless calm

spreads its wings amidst a flourishing floral wreath

A bold black bird

It's a bridge between eras and cultures
