Sun*sitive
original watercolor sunflowers: 9" x 12"
I love the way
on a late summer day
the sun reaches down
to gather around
my sunflower girls
with their gold-yellow curls
and their skirts made of leaves
swaying in the breeze...
The birds of the air
and the insects working there
create a vibration
a vibrato celebration
as they all harmonize
their praise to the skies...
I’m thankful to be
by this shimmering sea
and grateful to hear
this music of the spheres

FairView
original watercolor Farm views: 32" x 24"
an artist displays
exhibitionist ways
but it’s all okay
‘cause painting filled days
and eve'nings remain
quite high on our list
of things we like best
so please don’t insist
we cease and desist!

TractorPull
original watercolor tractor: 8" x 10"
sometimes I must
simply adjust
my view of the world
and try something new
for a week...maybe two
so now here's a view
a tractor review
with wheels all askew
an old bad boy dude!

Sheeple
original watercolor sheep: 8" x 10"
Harmo-nious Perso-nious
went out for a run
this very fine day
had lots to be done
stuff that gets in the way
of some fun in the sun
but nature’s libretto
called out ceremo-nious
in pleasing vibrato
a sound tremolo-nious
twas something I sought to
experience in perso-nious
and when I got done
on this very fine day
from my run in the sun
I was all tuned up and completely harmo-nious

Beach Front Property
original watercolor sand dunes: 12" x 17"
oh to be
by the sea
just my fam’ly and me
sunblocked nose
bug sprayed toes
sunning responsibly
grasses sway
sand dunes say
join all nature at play
roaring surf
sandy turf
it’s an OBX day!

The Windy City
original watercolor cityscape w/woodwinds: 10" x 14"
more treasures I find
as still I press on
will I get to an end
will it ever be done
dreams lurk in my mind
every night as I rest
while days are task-filled
on this treasure filled quest
I know that in time
there’ll be a reward
a peace not soon spoken
but one that endures

Chicken Tricks
You cannot be chicken
If you do some paintin'
Unless you are thinkin’
You’d like a good lickin’
When things go astray
And mistakes come to play
Adjustments are made
To save the paint day
