Sophie

watercolor portrait

R E S T

I bet you don’t know

that 4 letter word

spelled R-E-S-T

is the absolute worst

as a bad word it’s first (!)

according to Sophie

who knows at BB’s

she makes all the rules

‘cause she is no fool

she just has to say

PopPop BB come, play

and we both obey

and play all the day!

Annabelle

watercolor portrait: 4 1/2" x 7"

Well

Annabelle

your first year is done

you’re almost grown up

at age number one!

what a great time you’ve had

and I’m happy, yet sad

‘cause I’ve missed you a lot

but I know that you’ve got

the best mom and dad

you ever could have

and I’m confidant that

you’re up for the task

(without sounding trite)

you’ll raise them up right!

Inherent Transparency Watercolor Eggplants and Pumpkin by Daily Painter Bertie Brown - Art is Instrumental

Inherent Transparency

original watercolor eggplants/pumpkin: 7" x 7"

as summer languished

in translucent honey haze

autumn revives

with transparent amber days

while indigo ink nights

blanket mile-high starry skies

and cooler winds collide

pushing summer’s heat aside

from translucent to transparent

these transitions are apparent

seasons come and seasons go...

nature’s cycle so inherent

original watercolor floral/sunflower: 8" x 10"

And Yet

My sunflower girlfriends

have taken their bows

the show has now closed

their reign at an end

the summer stage crew

is striking the sets

tearing down, sweeping up

not much left to do

cool winds are approaching

a new show’s in the wing

autumn’s edgier tone

and pride is encroaching

there’s a sharp dialogue

burnt sienna, cobalt blue

with a punchline, scarlet red

a biting monologue

I’m open, looking on

taking in the dry wit

yet wishing for just

one more summer song

Endless Summer Watercolor Still Life Series by Daily Painter Bertie Brown - Art is Instrumental

Endless Summer

original watercolor still life w/basket, shells: 23" x 22

(last in a series)

what ho

Sophie and I

just want to know

who turned 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 hope

that comes real soon!
