We Share the Salt of the Earth with the Eye in the Sky

Albert Bierstadt, A Storm in the Rocky Mountains, Mt. Rosalie. Does the lone bird fly out of or toward the light?
The sky is crying
With our tears intermingled
Makes no difference

Oh, love this!
Beautiful! Good luck 😁
great work
Very impressively done! This is a marvel
Beautifully done.
This is beautiful, both grand and personal, Rommi! I love Albert Bierstadt, definitely my favorite artist of the Hudson River School. I’ve had the good fortune to see several of his paintings in person over the decades. They take your breath away!
A very heartfelt painting on a universal canvas
Your Haiku reminded me of this quote that I've come across before: "I always like walking in the rain, so no one can see me crying."
😢💕 loved this.
Firstly, your words in your title, subtitle and haiku. Excellent. And then, that artwork. What a picture!
