Black Eyed Suzie Floozies Watercolor Floral Still Life with Black Eyed Susans by Pennsylvania Daily Painter Bertie Brown

Black Eyed Suzie Floosies
original watercolor floral still life with black eyed susans: 11"w x 12"h

this heat is confusin’

my black eyed sultry susans

yes they are bendin’ down

ever nearer the ground

‘cause they know autumn’s waitin’

for its cue to start takin’

over prime weather space

with it’s frosty embrace

and my suzies

those beauties

will all hibernate

till next spring shows its face

and they begin their advance

to a new summer romance

Beautifully nostalgic with the old handkerchiefs as a lovely backdrop for the pretty flowers!

those Black Eyed Susies like to show off, just like my sunflower girls!
