De-Composers Abstract Watercolor Dried Sunflowers by Pennsylvania Daily Painter Bertie Brown/Art is Instrumental

De-Composers

abstract watercolor floral/sunflowers: 5"w x 7"h

Stunning Conclusions

here at last

the stunning conclusion

to their storied past

there’s no confusin’

those wild and crazy girls

now with spiky brittle

and styleless curls

their skirts a jumble

of twisted brown leaves

how easily they crumble

yet still they cleave

to those good ol’ summer days

when they danced the lindy-hop

in their fancy free way

they were the queens of be-bop

with nary a care

nor thought for the morrow

those girls, savoir faire

had no regrets nor sorrows

with curls unfurled

and skirts that flew

they dipped and twirled

on their well heeled shoe

I sure do miss them

I wonder, will you?
