The Blue Plate Special Stll Life Watercolors by Bertie Brown

The Blue Plate Special

original still life watercolor w/pitchers, plate, bottles: 11" x 12"

more treasures I find

as still I press on

will I get to an end

will it ever be done

dreams lurk in my mind 

every night as I rest

while days are task-filled

on this treasure filled quest

I know that in time

there’ll be a reward

a peace not soon spoken

but one that endures

Trio-sphere Musical Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Trio-sphere

original watercolor w/trumpet, horn, trombone: 11" x 14"

Eggs-cellent

original drawing w/eggs, shells, pitcher: 10" x 12"

technic

I hear

is over-rated...

don’t fear

‘cause when there is truth

with a Capital T

there’s no flattery

it’s not what i need

those doubts 

they must flee

and statements of worth

cease posing, you see

experience brings hope

please wait patiently

this ‘busy-ness’... rest...

there’s peace here for me

Autumnesque-cape Drawing by Bertie Brown

Autumnesque-cape

original drawing w/zinnias, shells:10" x 12"

and this is the question

can I toss intention

and renounce all strife

at this stage of life?

could I, if you please,

watch daytime TV

munch Bon-bons in threes

sip Long Isle Iced Teas

would I, do you see,

be happy with ease??

seems I have this need

to work constantly

and drawing, indeed,

is essential to me...

Com-posers Sunflower Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Com-posers

original watercolor sunflowers: 11" x 14"

In the Blooming

my bed of sunflowers

prepping for hours

is all set to host

an end of summer toast

boasting nectar so sweet

tasty seeds, what a treat

for our faithful dine-ees

all feasting happily

dragonflies, bumble bees

butterflies, such drama queens

golden finches, 

those much reformed grinches

heady heat waves

shimmer and sway 

hovering o’er

 this late summer day

I wave goodbye 

as they pack up, they try

to smile through their sighs

then southward they fly

the long winter’s night

is approaching too soon

will they come back next June?

I hope so, I do....
