the alpaca said
to her buddies up ahead
why can’t we simply try

Bully Durham Watercolors by Bertie Brown
Bully Durham
original watercolor shaggy steer: 8" x 10"
I forget
do gnus
rhyme with canoes
or mile high heeled shoes
and what is the need
if you could, tell me please
of the extra L'd Llama
for it’s silent, do you see
is it oh so much better
to own one more letter
than the Lama, actual-ly
or the Nu with no G

Fruit Cup Watercolors by Bertie Brown
Framed Fruit Cup
Buttercup Days Ahead
Sophie and i
are anxious time counters
of the weeks, days and hours
till summer’s sunflowers..
so we’re planning an event
to keep us content
a friendly picnic
in a meadow at six
where busy bees peer
over petals and cheer
their great luck at finding
a clover patch inviting
and birds by the throngs
singing melodious songs
eye our buttercup bread
that keeps us well fed
this winsome, wondrous day
is coming our way
so join us, please do
we’ll be waiting there for you!

Dilly-dals
original watercolor daffodils: 8" x 10"
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 if it’s not fit
or off just a bit
ignore if you please
these daffodil-ies

Glass'odils Watercolors by Bertie Brown
Glass'odils
original watercolor daffodils: 8" x 10"
april’s a tease
don’t flatter her please
‘cause she’s such a flirt
in her daffodil skirt
oh some days she’s warm
and sweet, that’s for sure
while other days roar
with cold winds galore
let’s face it, my friends
i do wish she’d end
this month of thirty days
please blow yourself away
oh spring it has sprung
the grass it is riz
but june is the one
i wish had begun

SongFlowers Sunflower Watercolors by Bertie Brown
SongFlowers
original watercolor sunflowers: 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
