Com-posers Series, Impressionistic Watercolor Floral, Sunflowers by Pennsylvania Daily Painter Bertie Brown

Com-posers

original watercolor floral/sunflower: 13"w 17"h

Goldfinch Grinch

My sunflower girls

Never use my sunblock

Nor do they use

Sun tan lotion a lot

They’re naturally golden

Their brown faces boastin’

Their fearless devotion

To summer’s sun rays

But there are some days

They have to confess

Some kind of pest spray

Would be their best bet

For shoo-ing away

Gold finches of prey

‘Cause finches

Are Grinches

As they squander, doggone-it

The petals and bonnets

My sunflowers boast

In my poems and sonnets

Why couldn’t they just

Gather seeds without fuss....
