Taking My Souvenirs and Creating

What Will This Wind Bring

The wind blows so hard today
Is it bringing summer back this way
The temperature so low for the month of June
Here's hoping they warm back up, and soon
The weather is something beyond control
It was so warm we thought we were on a roll
This year would bring great times in the sun
But something sent summer on the run
Well maybe just resting somewhere for a bit
Much more summer heat I'm sure we'll get
So okay wind blow for today
If it brings back summer hip hip hooray

Sometimes My Favorites Aren't the Best Ones

Sometimes I like my art pieces that don't appeal to most people.  They just seem to speak to me in some way or another.  Either the randomness of the subject matter or the color choices or just how weird they are.  I am not sure why they appeal to me but they do.  I like the unplanned pieces much better than when I try to actually paint something from an idea already formed. I like the paint to take over I guess. I feel they say this is me.

Alex Gets Married

She came into the world on a winter's day

My eldest grandchild had come to play

She was full of smiles and laughter, such a loving child

As she grew older, she sometimes could be a little wild

A wonderful woman she has grown to be

It is such a great joy for me to see

In a few short days she weds her best friend

That does not mean her fun shall end

The best days of her life are

yet ahead

In a few short days she will be wed
