And So It Goes
Seems the sun has turned a sudden cold shoulder
On our summertime romance,
Apparently now over.....
Gone are those golden sundrops
Dripping so warmly upon my face
Shivering shadows
Have now taken their place
While cobalt blue breezes
Rustle about,
Announcing the advancing autumnal season,
Teasing my summer tee shirts,
Taunting my silken skirts.....
The sun flowers are ruined
Their beauty in tatters,
Seeds, petals.....leaves,
Tossed about.....scattered.
So begins the march
Of the soldiering squirrels
As they gather the remains
Of my golden sun girls.....
[As quickly as ants
At a summertime picnic, they advance,
And I thought finches
Were sunflower grinches!]
So I’m left with the memories,
A great golden wall
Where my sunflowers surround me
Standing true, standing tall.
But wait,
Did that sun just now say?
“I’ll be back”
For next summer’s jitter-bug days!

The Blog....
Hey there Mommy
Guess what Daddy
Grandma BB
Got accepted
To a website
Or a blogsite
Which is just
What Grandma BB thinks is great luck!
She’ll post paintings
That are waiting
To be purchased
By a merchant
Or collector
Art inspector
Or someone
Who loves her work and wants to buy some......
She will prob’ly
Post our Ozzie
And that work she
Titled “Sophie”
She’ll work hours
Posting flowers
Music themes
And in between
Some landscape scenes....
Then we’ll wait here
Hope and pray here
That somebody
Sees her work there
And sends e-mails
With some details
Of an order for
A work to fit their decor!
