i once had a thought
original and clever...
but that thought i forgot!
gone forever? i hope not..
still, i’m dismayed
yes fraught and distraught
‘cause it may have been great
that thought i just lost!

SoleMates
original watercolor boot/onions: 9" x 12"
yes, things are askew
but that’s acceptable, too
‘cause when it’s called art
reality departs
and my point of view
might convince even you
that some things can be
true for both you and me

Springspiration
original watercolor still life w/onions, boots: 10" x 14"
an artist displays
exhibitionist ways
but it’s all okay
‘cause painting filled days
and nights do remain
quite high on our list
of things we like best
so please don’t insist
we cease and desist!

NeonNewYork
original New York cityscape: 9" x 12"
it’s relative-ly
a new work, you see
with something that’s old
a shape big and bold
and some that are new
with int’resting hues
borrowed from yet
a past series set
hmmm...
it’s deja vu
for those orange and blues!

Winter Blues
oh, how i long for June or July
and summer sunshine
filling the sky
this season of cold
has taken it’s hold
with harsh winds awailin’
and snow flakes asailin’
this winter’s so long
it’s long in the tooth
let’s give it a shove
let’s give it the boot!
i’m sportin’ my mitties
and ear muffs indoors
wool sweaters and wristies
but still i need more
each year winter’s gittin’
too hard to endure
i should be just sittin'
on some southern shore
instead i’ve got blankets
piled high on my lap
i’m ready, in fact
for a mid-winter’s nap……

A quick study draw
With some splashes of paint

the best horse indeed
in racing histor*eeeeee

The Horn Call
Cover Art by Bertie Brown
Practice makes better
But perfect?
Not ever...
Especially if horn playing
Is what you can do
You’ll prob’ly improve
But that’s questionable, too
My advice to you
Buy a French Horn Kazoo!
