    Orchid speaking

    orchids_featuredThese orchids,
    on display,
    bloomed,
    again,
    this time on paper,
    from a single line,
    then more,
    and finished
    with a splash of color.

  • The Feeding

    The Feeding

    Four inches of snow,
    and the birds
    are hungry,
    making a perch
    at the feeders
    standing room
    only.

  • Wild thing

    Wild thing

    This creature appeared one day,
    invited by my imagination,
    who was out to play,
    then
    a single line
    dabbed in watercolor,
    and a wild thing was born.

  • Chrysanthemum

    Chrysanthemum

    Mums, Mums, Mums,
    So many textures,
    layers,
    colors,
    easily missed,
    but come alive,
    when drawn.

  • Humming

    Humming

    Lines and lines,
    of stitchery,
    form these two
    hummingbirds,
    and their
    tasty
    flowers

  • Dancin’ shoes

    Dancin’ shoes

    High heels,
    out to strut,
    line
    dancing,
    tapping to the music,
    soon to discover,
    they’ve become,
    personal,
    percussin’

  • House of Women

    House of Women

    The House of Women,
    the voice
    of compassion,
    reason,
    truth,
    empathy,
    caring,
    and the
    ship of
    leaders.

  • Willy Lily

    Willy Lily

    The daily doses
    of water
    brought these lilies
    out to full bloom,
    begging to be
    seen,
    sketched.

  • Ted

    Ted

    Sitting patiently,
    looking on,
    cuddly,
    so I agreed
    to capture,
    in my way,
    on paper.

  • Mates for life

    Mates for life

    The male cardinal,
    feeds,
    then feeds his mate,
    and she in turn,
    does the same,
    as they should,
    they are mates,
    for life.

  • A vase of flora

    A vase of flora

    A vase,
    filled with lilies,
    carnations,
    and tips,
    dipped in blues,
    and greens,
    a line drawing,
    vivid contrasts,
    with a dollop
    of watercolor,
    accent,
    bring to focus,
    the spectacular blooms

  • Silver lining

    Silver lining

    A red carnation,
    posed. I grabbed a notebook,
    and a pen,
    a single line
    later, my carnation,
    bloomed, wearing silver.
