Lancaster Cownty
original watercolor landscape w/cows: 10" x 14"
and the holstein cried
to the bovine on her right
why don’t we simply try
to lay our views aside
let's get along today
‘cause that’s the kinder way
to graze in peace ’n harmony
will benefit us all you see

Autumness
original watercolor fall landscape: 9" x 12"
you cannot be chicken
if you do some paintin’
unless you are thinkin’
you’d like a good lickin’
‘cause just when that paint
does wondrous fresh stuff
your brain turns to mush
and you muck it all up

EnDeering
original watercolor deer in lanscape: 9" x 12"
there’s rhythm ’n blues
and these three approve
of cash to be passed
for this pic under glass
so here’s to their fans
and the money they hand
to the painter
at her stand
she’s gonna be glad

original watercolor historic Lancaster County Building: 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!

BlowHard
original watercolor autumn landscape: 9" x 12"
what ho
Sophie and I
just want to know
who switched off the heat
and dimmed the lights low
where are the wool socks for our feet
our cashmere sweaters and turtlenecks
who said summer could retreat?
we are cold and so distressed
why can’t winter last one week
it’s time I guess
to hibernate
until next June
and we both say
please come back soon..

Falling Water
original watercolor landscape: 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 now I don’t know
if it’s fit to show
if not,
you’ve just got
to tell me to Stop!

MiniMart
original watercolor landscape VietNam market: 12' x 16"
there could be misconceptions
some slight depth perceptions
a misappropriation
with no negotiation
i will not enhance
renounce at a glance
embellish or squellish
not even a chance
it just filled a day
in the neighborhood i’d say
so onward i press
in search of success…

VietNam Throng
original watercolor lamdscape VietNam '68
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
