A TRUMPERICK
Goldfinch60 said:

The \'reality show\' is a myth as they only show the unreal that people believe - or is that politicians?

Wonderful painting Michael.

A TRUMPERICK
dusk arising said:

Humpty Trumpty promised a wall
But grumpy Trump couldnt build one at all
All his discourses
And all his sacked friends
Brought them Joe Biden
A sane leader again

...... (we hope)

that cynic within
is usually more concerned
with those tremors of life
that come long, dumping
me from wherever
I happen to be perched...
a good read Michael

I though this was going to be a peeing contest when i read the title.

I found a place of comfort far from such dizzy heights accepting them as unattainable in light of the unprincipled enthusiasm of others.

Ha ha - - you have such a way of using rhyme-words - another bit of welcome wit from your clever pen Michael - --- it well describes my nightly trials too.

I like the somber tone to the bright water colours you\'ve utilised, especially framed by that grey - as if a reminder, that just beyond this listless dreary days of Winter: our months of Spring and Summer await our arrival with muted anticipation.
Let all do our best to say safe and once more experience: Nature\'s blossoming seasons...
a wonderful artwork Michael, subtle - ever so subtle,

D\'you ever wonder on opening yer eyes
How sleeptime lingers or sometimes flies
then the brain recovers
as you throw back your covers
and the missus farts as soundly she lies

How is Miss B\'s sleep? Does she count syllables to get to sleep, instead of sheep?

I woke up early
And found these words
And saw the painting
I am off to a good day.

DAYS END
L. B. Mek said:

always surprises me how your artwork and words, combine to help me recall specific elements within literature I have read:
here, I immediately gravitate to that small DIY store \'start-up\' by \'Momma\', Maya Angelou\'s grandma from \'I know why...\'
one tiny shop and miniscule element of her book, that helped give the world, one of 20th century\'s great Poets...
I\'m sure you were calling on far more local and \'lighter in topic\' sources for inspiration,
all the same what a wonderful artwork and read Michael

Miss B got any bread? Or any dough? Maybe meaning money - she got any for us?!

Loved the poem and the watercolor,
which contains some irony.
Make a wrong choice nature will be a
ruthless critic.

A bucolic poem about a not very bucolic landscape at that moment. Very evocative.
Thanks, Dave

Missing from the painting is a well
For your words do cast a spell

Glad it wasn\'t the building in your painting
