Painting: The James Place, Andrew Wyeth, 1963 Watercolor and pencil on paper 30 X 21 in. Image Source: Sothebys.com
In 1963 the James place sat Yankee straight Holding up the milk-colored sky Clapboards no longer gleaming Rough and ready salt grass Waving
You are there Sketching somewhere Beyond the flank of the house A scraggle of grass nipping at your ankles
You see that house And make it yours.
