and the holstein cried
to the bovine on her right
why don’t we simply try
to lay our views aside

to graze in peace ’n harmony

original watercolor sunflowers and bouquet: 10" x 14"
what HO!
is it SO??
well not quite
you know
but i COULD NOT wait
in fact it was fate
that beckoned me thus
to BUY them and paint
and so here I am
content once again
though just for a bit
in sunny respite
so hasten on, JUNE
i’m beckoning you
to put on the moves
and heat up real SOON!

Historic Shuts House
original watercolor Shuts' House Library: 9" x 12"
Sophie and I know
that sometimes it’s best
to simply allow
a painting to rest
it may not be done
though there are intense
and beautiful hues
that seem to make sense
we want to be sure
we have to confess
that this work secures
it’s soulful-ishness

Curiosity
curiouser and curiouser
it seems to me
this spring is the bomb
at flirting you see
‘cause just when you feel
a warm gentle breeze
a sun so friendly
you’re relaxin’ indeed
a cold front blows in
equipped with more rain
it spreads itself out
and i want to shout
oh yes there’s the rub
when springtime has come
those idyllic days
are quickly undone….

DoeBoy
original watercolor fawn: 9" x 12"
right from day one
we all loved the sun
'twas never enough
we were never quite “done”
our faces were bronzed
our hair sun-streaked gold
our innocence reigned
we’d never grow old
but time has a way
a mean streak, I’d say,
of hastening the days
that youth does betray
so now that we’re old
or older, to wit,
we’re gonna wise up
and be careful, just a bit...

The BeezKnee
original watercolor portrait: 8" x 10"
A is for Annabelle
and for addition
B is for BB
who’s newest submission
is C for cousin
'cause now there are two!
D is for delight
and double, too
who would have guessed
my boys having girls
so yes, I’m twice blessed
“What a Wonderful World”

Anarchy!
Sophie says
You’re not the boss of me!
Sophie says
you’ve got to let me be!
I want this thing
and that thing’s mine too
there is so much
that I want to do
I know it’s yours
and it just might break
it’s on the floor
so it’s mine to take!
I need to climb
though I’m scared to fall
those steps are high
but I’ll try them all
stay by my side
I need to be safe
please hold my hand
while I take my stand!

Cat-astrophy
original watercolor cat portrait: 8" x 10"
indigo grace
a gentle place
for quiet thoughts
and simple talks
refreshed, renewed
we’ve work to do
so on we press
inspired no less
by warmer days
and short vacays
new ways to play
in sun or shade

more red-haired girls
than we’d hoped for or imagined
it looks just like
a beauty pageant!
Sophie and I, artistic hosses
are painting their portraits

with great petal losses!

to get the job done
we’re hoping for good weather
with plenty of sun!
