'The force that through the green fuse drives the flower'

I came across a field where there stood 4 trees behind which a line of poplars looked silhouetted against a blue sky dappled with clouds.  There were grasses tall and moving in the soft breeze like waves, revealing - in their sways, different tones of green.  I could hear the air ruffling through the grasses and beyond pressing the leaves and trunks of the tall poplars. 

The line above is taken from a Dylan Thomas poem, one that has a focus on our link with nature and the cycles that bind our lives with the movements of the natural world.  I was only made aware of the poem recently and this line I like very much, it suits the painting and the sense of openness and life anew I was trying to evoke.
