The RedHead Sunflower Watercolors by Bertie Brown

The RedHead

original watercolor sunflower: 12" x 15"

Eminent Domain

is eminent domain

something finches disdain

as they each stake their claim

to my sunflowers’ fame

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 gold suits

and their hollers and hoots

sound like piccolo flutes!

Sunflower Alley Watercolors by Bertie Brown

Sunflower Alley

original watercolor en plein air sunflower field: 17" x 22"

prints available

summer is waning

i do hate to say

it wasn’t the best-est

in many a way

oh, some days were great

clear skies to the moon

the sun dripping rays

sunflowers in bloom

but most days were WET

with water drenched air

rain forest-y, yes

oppressive, you bet

still…summer’s the time

when memories shine

and life seems a bit 

more civilized, kind

Good Vibrations

i love the way

on a late august day

 the sun reaches down

to gather around

my sunflower girls

with their gold-yellow curls

and their skirts made of leaves

swaying in the breeze...

the birds of the air

and the insects working there

create a vibration

a vibrato celebration

as they all harmonize

their praise to the skies...

i’m thankful to be

by this shimmering sea

and grateful to hear

this music of the spheres

Sunflwer Alley Sunflower Field Watercolor by Daily Painter Bertie Brown

Sunflower Alley

original watercolor sunflower field: 12" x 10"

my sunflowers are done

their petals are gone

though the finches, I see

are still havin’ fun

they no longer cling

to those sunflower rims

to pull split and spit

the shells that they fling

they just take their seats

at the table..a feast!

it’s the best buffet yet

for those finches, I bet

‘tis a glorious thing

as I hear them all sing

but for me, I just fret

‘cause autumn comes next!

Good Vibrations

I love the way

on a late August day

the sun reaches down

to gather around

my sunflower girls

with their golden yellow curls

and their skirts made of leaves

swaying in the breeze...

The birds of the air

and the insects working there

create a vibration

a vibrato celebration

as they all harmonize

their praise to the skies...

I’m thankful just to be

by this shimmering sea

and grateful to hear

this music of the spheres
