Paul'nPaula Bluebird
original watercolor bluebirds: 8" x 10"
I think that it’s done
and I had some fun
‘though there a few
solutions that skewed
my original view
and managed to be
surprising, you see
so now I don’t know
if it’s fit to show
if not,
you’ve just got
to tell me to Stop!

Blue on Blue
original watercolor bluebirds: 8" x 10"
Eminent Domain
is eminent domain
something bluebirds disdain
as they each stake their claim
to my birdseed domain
don’t they have a clue
I have etiquette rules
they routinely eschew
behaving so RUDE
I’d tell them to flee
‘cause they’re making a scene
but they are rather cute
in their blue and orange suits
and their hollers and hoots
sound like piccolo flutes!

MaySun
original watercolor still life w/sunflowers: 8" x 10"
it’s relative-ly
a new work, you see
with something that’s old
a shape big and bold
and some that are new
with int’resting hues
borrowed from yet
a past series set
hmmm...
it’s deja vu
for those yellows and blues!

The Veg-Table
original watercolor still life w/peppers, egg plants: 9" x 12"
the pepper-azi have got
the whole bloomin’ lot
surrounded on the table top
Eggplant Kid’s gonna hang
with Veg Cassidy and his gang
well I’ve just gotta say
crime never ever does pay
those eggplants will be booked
by a well known famous cook
who will know just what to make
with some peppers, they’ll taste great!

The Music In Me
original drawing: 10" x 14"
a musician displays
exhibitionist ways
but it’s all okay
‘cause music 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!

Robin'sHoods
original watercolor blackbirds'n robin: 8" x 10
Trio Trouble
if the robin's in charge
one redwing won’t play
the other won’t say
if he’ll go or stay
such is the way
our world behaves today
compromise is out
dissonance has clout
there could be peace and harmony
if we are treated fairly, see...

BlackJax
original watercolor red winged blackbirds: 8" x 10"
Eminent Domain
is eminent domain
something blackbirds disdain
as they each stake their claim
to my bird feeder frame
don’t they have a clue
I have etiquette rules
they routinely eschew
behaving so RUDE
I’d tell them to flee
‘cause they’re making a scene
and a mess at my feet
spitting shells from their beaks
but they are rather cute
in their black and red suits
and their hollers and hoots
sound like piccolo flutes!

ByeBye Blackbird
original watercolor redwinged blackbird: 5" x 7"
Bloom Anew
BB says
I hope and pray that soon
BB says
my kindred month of June
Bb says
will hum it’s friendly tune
as it brings summer anew
so my sunflowers can bloom
I will laugh at last
‘cause she’s come back
fair weather in her sack!

RedWing Calling
original watercolor redwinged blackbirds: 5" x 7"
Grassy green grass
Prickles and tickles
My grandie's piggies
All wiggly and squiggly
Babbling birdie birds
Chirp quirky birdie words
Buzzing bees fly
By our own blue eyes
Daffodils gaze
Daisies parade
My poppies sing praise
Springtime, nature’s fling-time
“Neath a shy smiling sun
Nature’s prelude
To the deluge
Of summer days soon to come...
