The BluezBrothers
original watercolor bluebirds: 10" x 8"
there’s rhythm ’n blues
and these bluebirds know
when push comes to shove
all’s fair when it’s love
no sharin’ the treats
those mealy worm sweets
‘cause love conquers all
except when food calls

The Blues Brothers
original watercolor bluebirds" 8" x 10"
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 orange and blues

What Ho!
2000 twenty two
is in the rear view
and BB's paintings
have stacked up it seems
no ifs ands or buts
they’ve still got the stuff
to keep them on top
of the pile, tho' it’s not
scientific i've got
a hunch they'll be hot
at next summer's show stops
'cause with subjects like these
they'll sell out quick-lee!

The FooFighters

My windows are open
Cool breezes are flowin’
My curtains are flirtin'
With the sill and the sash
This is the way
A fine day in May
Ought always to be
I bet you’d agree!

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!

Eminent Domain
is eminent domain
something bluebirds disdain
as they each stake their claim
to my birdseed domain
don’t they have a clue
I have etiquette rules
they routinely eschew
behaving so RUDE
I’d tell them to flee
‘cause they’re making a scene
but they are rather cute
in their blue and orange suits
and their hollers and hoots
sound like piccolo flutes!

Winter Blues
oh, how I long for June or July
with summer sunshine
and butterflies passing by
this season of cold
has taken it’s hold
with harsh winds now wailin’
seems the sun has gone sailin’
so I’m getting all set,
though it’s hard not to fret,
as blankets cover my lap
and I settle in
for a long winter's nap

The Blues
original watercolor bluebirds: 8" x 10"
at this time of year
when cold is ev'rywhere
two glasses of wine,
not one, calms my mind
might winter decease,
desist or at least
call it a day
and just go away
I’m tryin’ to stay
upbeat, by the way,
with Mozart, i’ve got,
Beethoven and Bach

May the Bluebirds of..
original watercolor bluebirds: 6" x 8"
there’s def’nitely
a space for me
this spring indeed
as this I see
more work to do
with more thought to
creative ways
that hit the mark
of ending well
a well thought start
