I Should Go Paint Sometime Today

I should go paint sometime today.
My art studio is across the way.
In a garage not a concrete quay.

My horse painting can almost neigh.
I hear it from my squirrel nest drey.
Wait a second. Is that a blue jay?
Now where is my Hawaiian lei?

I throw myself into the fray.
With a cheerful hat merry and gay.
Sun is shining taking all the gray.
Showing her power in each little day.

The half painted canvases are my prey.
I shall finish them today, okay?
Will I sell them? No. That is a nay.
They are mine and mine alone today.

I am starting to muralize my walls. I have already made a three wall closet mural. The hallway is calling my name.

I have had two half done for a month. I finally decided I do not like either one of them enough to finish them so I began painting two new ones. You might want to try it Eve.

Love it! I took out an art book on Grandma Moses today. I thought of her because today’s calendar page quoted her. Why not, after all I work at the library...a fountain of books :) Blessings, dear friend!

I’m awkward with a paint brush much more inclined toward words but I love art!
