Rough 'n Red-dy Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Rough 'n Red-dy

original watercolor still life w/daffodils: 12" x 14"

I think that it’s done

and I had some fun

‘though there a few 

solutions that skewed

my original view

and managed to be

surprising, you see

so now I don’t know

if it’s fit to show

if not,

 you’ve just got

to tell me to Stop!

Tulip Time Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Tulip Time

original watercolor tulips: 9" x 12"

Haughty

 that’s what

my Sophie thought

the first time she viewed

our tulips in bloom

‘cause there they all stood

as only they could

with petals held high

reaching up to the sky

now Sophie and I

know daffodils try

to brighten our days

with their friendly ways

not haughty, aloof

their faces, the proof

of good will and cheer

‘cause springtime is here

That Girl Watercolors by Bertie Brown

That Girl

original watercolor portraits: 11" x 15"

remember in school

we learned the rule

that there were cliques

a specialty list

of kids way cool

though we weren’t fools

our own gene pools

just did not rule

we weren’t as blessed

our confidence less

we weren’t sure why 

and could not guess

and now these girls 

with all their curls

just look to me

like they would be

the pop-ular kids, indeed!

Complaining Com-Posers Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Complaining Com-Posers

originalwatercolor sunflowers: 8" x 10"

Tuff Stuff

There once was a spring breeze named Sough

Not harsh nor decidedly tough

He nudged winter’s huff

Said “pick up your stuff”

And blew it away with a puff!

(do your stuff, sough!)

The Veggi Table Watercolors by Bertie Brown

The Veggi Table

original watercolor still life w/sunflowers, veggies: 9" x 12"

Spring Musical

oh spring

is the thing

we hope for in November

long for in December

lose in January

right through February

cry for in March

die for in April

can’t wait one more day

for the merry month of May

and still cold temps cling

to every bloomin’ thing!

so when the month of June

bursts suddenly into view

I’ll look around and smile

and bid stay with me awhile
