A bouquet of flowers brings such freshness and joy to a room, but the blooms fade so quickly. This painting captures the beauty of flowers in a vase that will stay fresh and vibrant forever.
“Gather quickly
Out of darkness
All the songs you know
And throw them at the sun
Before they melt
Like snow."
—from Bouquet(1957) in The Collected Poems of Langston Hughes
