Lititz Art Show July 29 : 9 - 5 NO RAIN ALLOWED!

Posers in the Park

Here we come

Chargin’ to the park

we’re gonna get there real early

While it’s still pretty dark

Hey, hey we’re the ‘Posers’

We’ve got a lot of work yet to do

We have to sell ourselves all to you

So we better get hangin’

Ourselves in the Bertie Brown Booth!

Crimson Com-Poser Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Crimson Com-Poser

original watercolor sunflowers: 9" x 12"

Cavalier about Cheer

my sunflower girls 

have got to admit

they long for a world

where they could just sit

they’ve got but one shoe

though it’s a great fit

a minute without it

would help quite a bit

their long leggy-ness

can cause some back strain

a slight dizzy-ness

and dull aching pain

but stand there they do

displaying such cheer

for one month or two

this time of the year

it’s quite cavalier

and exhausting, I fear!

original watercolor sunflowers: 9" x 12"

Sophie and i 

in summertime mode

are sitting beside

a sunflower abode

a garden, of course

where we plan to stay

with no great remorse

for past cooler days

‘cause we’ve got our paints

our brushes and such

our sun hats in place

and posers? a bunch!

so here’s where we’ll be

come sun or a storm

we’ll work happily

our summertime  ‘norm’!

Summer Solstice

'tis mid-summer too soon

what happened to June?

and July’s on the run

yet it’s hardly begun!

i don’t know about you

but I’m gonna assume

you’re distraught just like me

‘cause we love summer’s ease

i’m thinking we might

have to put up a fight

so when summertime ends

let’s begin it again

Cold Front

The windows I’m closin’

my sunflowers need  hosin’

it’s blisterin hot

not one cold spot

‘cept here in the store

by the ice cream freezer door

where I pretend to stock up

on creamsicle pops

but truth to be told

it’s just good to feel cold!
