Afternoon on a Hill

Edna St. Vincent Millay

I will be the gladdest thing
Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one.

I will look at cliffs and clouds
With quiet eyes,
Watch the wind blow down the grass,
And the grass rise.

And when lights begin to show
Up from town,
I will mark which must be mine,
And then start down.
***********************************
When I saw this picture, I was just fall into this image.
This picture makes me imagine that I am on the hill
and I am lying down on the hill.
The sun light gives hope to the house, people who are in this house,
will have feeling of euphoria
and deep silence reigned into the house.
Shadow from the sun makes me relaxed.
I am blinking through the sun.
At the same time, I am trace back a vague memory.
I traveled in southern America
and i stay one night just look like this house.
It was calm and carefree.
That's why I pick this picture, The poem
and this picture are connected by my memory.
