This Is For The Vocal "Lantern Light" Challenge From A Painting By Charles van Sandwyk, Shared By The Enchanted Booklet

'The Fairy Market' by Charles van Sandwyk.

Introduction

I found this delightful painting by Charles van Sandwyk on The Enchanted Booklet below:

I thought it would be perfect for the Vocal "Lantern Light" Challenge.

For this, I am going to attempt my first Concrete Poetry poem, although I have unwittingly done it before. I cannot do it as such in the Vocal editor, but I will do it in Google Docs and include a Screenshot.

The music is "Light My Way" by Nazareth

    What a perfect children's poem and the image kind of reminds me of the Beatrix Potter books. Good job.
