I've Got Sunshine Watercolors by Bertie Brown

I've Got Sunshine

original watercolor still life w/ girl, glass, flower: 14" x 16"

in her favorite nook

she continues to look

at her favorite flower

hour upon hour

with hope and a prayer

for an autumn that's fair

Relative-ity Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Relative-ity

original watercolor still life w/pitcher, pot, sunflower, tomato: 15" x 15"

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 red/orange/blues!

Com-Poser Concerto Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Com-Poser Concerto

watercolor sunflowers: 15" x 15"

De- C0mPoser

my lean and mean posers

can’t seem to get over

those past days of glory

their pose tells the story

so poignant and true

of lost beauty and youth

and innocence...  too

yet still they stand tall

and insist that we all

salute this new age

their ‘maturity’ phase

with dignity and grace

and  wisdom embraced

Carefree Com-Posers Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Careless Com-Posers

original watercolor sunflowers: 15" x 15"

Carefree Com-Posers

original watercolor sunflowers: 10" x 12"

at the far end of summer

i woke up to see

my sunflower soiree

in tatters and seeds

the birdies and bees

and butterfly-ees

so curiously

were packing to flee

seems nectar so sweet

that thirst quenching treat

was gone completely

said their twitters and tweets

so i’m left behind

with nothing but time

that’s filled to the brim

with memories of them....

at the far end of summer

i so want to be

at the beginning of spring 

2016
