Tigg Too Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Tigg Too

original watercolor tiger: 8" x 10"

Practice makes better

But perfect?

Not ever...

Especially if painting

Is what you can do

You’ll prob’ly improve

But that’s questionable, too

My advice to you

Buy a Bertie Brown or two!

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

Summer Blues Cruise

there’s plenty to do 

in summer it’s true

but sometimes I must

simply adjust

my take on all work

and shirk all that work

take time to relax

look forward, think back

embrace solitude

consider my mood

it’s summertime blues

a soul soothing cruise

BunnyHop Watercolors by Bertie Brown

BunnyHop

original watercolor easter bunny: 7" x 10

remember in school

we learned the rule

that there were cliques

a specialty list

of kids way cool

though we were not 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

bu niw this girl

with floppy ears curled

just knows she'd be

the bunnyhop queen!
