Bulb*Lite Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Bulb*Lite

original watercolor onions: 9" x 12"

just keep paintin', they say

so that’s what I do

not cease and desist

that’s never the way...

to break through the fray

you gotta hang tough

and paint every day

talent’s just not enough

Redskins Redux Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Redskins Redux

original watercolor onions: 9" x 12"

And the onion said

to his buddies in the bed

why can’t we simply try

to lay our views aside

let’s get along today

‘cause that’s the better way

to live in peace and harmony

will benefit us all, you see

The BeezerSeason's Sneakin'Up Watercolors by Bertie Brown

The BeezerSeason'sSneakin'Up

original watercolor bees: 8" x 10"

Spring Musical

oh spring

is the thing

we hope for in November

long for in December

lose in January

right through February

cry for in March

die for in April

can’t wait one more day

for the merry month of May

and still cold temps cling

to every bloomin’ thing!

so when the month of June

bursts suddenly into view

I’ll look around and smile

and bid stay with me awhile

The Aromatics Watercolors by Bertie Brown

The Aromatics

original watercolor boots/onions: 9" x 12"

What ho! 

the winds they are screamin’

my house it is leanin’

right into the flow

of this day's fierce blow

my windows are bulgin’

the furnace is pulsin'

this winter's hold

is keepin’ me cold

my goosebumps I declare

have goosebumps I swear

my nose it's so froze

to my icicled toes

Redskins Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Redskins

original watercolor onions/boots: 9" x 12"

i once had a thought

original and clever...

but that thought i forgot!

gone forever? i hope not..

still, i’m dismayed 

yes fraught and distraught

‘cause it may have been great

that thought i just lost!

SoleMates Watercolors by Bertie Brown

SoleMates

original watercolor boot/onions: 9" x 12"

yes, things are askew

but that’s acceptable, too

‘cause when it’s called art

reality departs

and my point of view

might convince even you

that some things can be

true for both you and me

Springspiration Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Springspiration

original watercolor still life w/onions, boots: 10" x 14"

an artist displays 

exhibitionist ways

but it’s all okay

‘cause painting filled days

and nights do remain

quite high on our list

of things we like best

so please don’t insist

we cease and desist!
