The Sunflower Shack
original watercolor landscape en plein air: 10" x 14"
Goldfinch Grinch
My sunflower girls
Never use my sunblock
Nor do they apply
Suntan lotion a lot
They’re naturally golden
Their brown faces boastin’
Their fearless devotion
To sunshine in motion
But there are some days
They have to confess
A shot of pest spray
Would be their best bet
For shoo-ing away
Gold finches of prey
‘Cause finches
Are Grinches
As they yank pull and splay
The petals and bonnets
My sunflowers boast
In my poems and sonnets
Why couldn’t they just
Gather seeds without fuss....
