Baubles and Bells Musical Instrument Watercolor by Daily Painter Bertie Brown

Baubles and Bells
original musical instrument watercolor w/horn: 17"x 17"
for prints click: BertieSmugmug

back in the day
I remember we played
with marbles and jacks
and baseballs and bats
but sometimes I recall
though I tried hard to stall 
I had to apply
my  lip 
to the tip
of my tarnished old horn
and try not to sound
too bad or forlorn
much later I found
practice, patience plus time
would greatly improve
my horn teacher’s mood!

Don't know how I missed this one Bertie... Beautiful as usual! and I love the poem ( I used to play clarinet so I can relate to the practise making the music teacher happy :)
