Poem: 
One cup of tea, one comma.
We still have time to put a period.
How do you want it finish?
A question mark?
Or an exclamation mark?
Even right that thought,
With a cup of tea first!

Poem: They worked until dark. Wife and husband are calling each other to go home.Dinner will be tasty and the sleep will be deep.

Recommended by Sunny (Collections Assistant):

In "Until Dark", we see the couple is surrounded by layers and layers and still has so much left to do. Your imagination takes you out of the scene and off the page. The task feels overwhelming. Although it is an agricultural scene, it's obscure. The pattern of rows is not uniform, as you would expect. Instead it looks like the artist has left his own fingerprint.
