Hydrangea Clan Watercolors by Bertie Brown
Hydrangea Clan
original watercolor hydrangeas: 9" x 12"
Cold Front
The windows I’m closin’
my flowers need hosin’
it’s blisterin hot
not one cold spot
‘cept back in the store
by the frozen food door
where I pretend to stock up
on fudgesicle pops
but truth to be told
it’s just good to feel cold!

Com-Posers
original watercolor sunflowers: 22" x 17"
Sunflowers
sienna brown faces
sporting golden sun bonnets
reading Emily's quirky poems
and Edna's soaring sonnets
their leaves a canopy
of swirling skirts, it seems to me
and stems so tall and true
standing proud on high heeled shoe
with dignity and grace
they give their dine-ees taste-
ee nectar, crunchy seeds
to my butterflies, birds’n bees

SmittenKitten Pet Portrait Watercolors by Bertie Brown
SmittenKitten
original watercolor pet portrait: 9" x 12"
a summer time stance
that time to relax
glance forward, just a bit
but never look back…
flowers in bloom
sweet scents of seduction
flirty fireflies wink
quick bursts of combustion
warm summer nights
a cashmere caress
sun-drenched daylight
cool linen, dazzling white
'tis summer’s sun-dance
a waltz that won’t last
but join me per-chance
before autumn’s cast

The Babysitter Watercolor Portraits by Bertie Brown
The Babysitter
original watercolor portrait: 8" x 10"
Lavender grace
A gentle place
For quiet thoughts
And simple talks
Of days gone by
A smile, a sigh
Refreshed, renewed
We’ve work to do
So on we press
Inspired no less
By mem'ries of
Past happi-ness

JT Portrait Watercolors by Bertie Brown
JT
original watercolor portrait: 9" x 12"
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 ‘bout you
but i’m gonna assume
you’re distraught just like me
‘cause we love summer’s ease
i’m thinking we might
just put up a fight
so when summertime ends
let’s begin it again

ShadyCharacter & Gotta Have Faith Portraait Watercolors by Bertie Brown
Shady Character
original watercolor portrait: 8" x 10"
Gotta Have Faith
original watercolor portrait: 8" x 10"
I once had a thought
original and clever...
but that thought I forgot!
gone forever?
I hope not..
still, I’m dismayed
fraught and distraught
‘cause it may have been great
that thought I just lost!
