paper cutting glass 2

This is a tale of our dining room, through the eyes of a visitor:  yes there are 37 mounted specimens, 10 paper, 6 cut paper (as seen here) and 4 bug images as the decor . . .... Wal tz Butter 🦋 As she looked at the art filled walls Her eyes dance as if at a lovely ball Butterflies fly open winged in melody Her partners in flowery loving harmony the room became a field with daisies and tulips Feathered with songs of fluttering bloom So many kinds with wings sharp and smooth Lacey silken colors dispersed any gloom Such instruments they seemed to play A visual rhythmic orchestral holiday Those winged insects brought romance Partner music for a soulful dance The waltz seems like the historic steps To grace the beauty, a party prance Indeed they filled the soul with pep Through eyes that whorled in a dance Maybe blossom flies should be their title That motion to announce each fluttering wing Is not like butter lovely as it may taste For we swallow them ...

Thursday Morn the 27th Night Portrait, Man w/Goldfish (stained glass) Or something in that order Almost the end of Month number two Marching steadily, quickly away Hoping that spring it soon will pursue Punished with side stepping seasonal puns After a night fizzled away, once quickly begun Then tortured with unrelenting belches And blue spotted dreams on the run Oh yes, not pictures or stories To sparkle, ripple up the slumber cycle  I get sharp tortures of hidden accounts  cutting sword like bloody Saint Michael Just like gas emitted like farts The holy land tri-faith angel of wrath Seems to want to destroy my sleep Stabbing harshly a post mortem bloodbath It seems that little vision tickets Of daily worries, bitches, daily news Have jumped inside my noggin so sharp To curdle and mold my positive views it seems not just our nation has fallen Taking us out of the living into our bedroom With greed and violence a daily madness Instead of spring flows chasing the doom Oh, let t...

  Flushing blushing silly thoughts (or The True Mid-Century Modern) 🚽 As I watched a wiped white wad Of soft silky toilet tissue Swirling swimming sinking down The white fixed potty throat I wonder of the history of humankind And what they did used to wipe their butts Before this soft paper on a roll & porcelain flushing pots to sit upon? Oh, yes some of us remember Old Spiegel catalogues beside those wooden holes before indoor luxurious bathrooms where the latest fashion decree for indeed our outhouses were just that usually with two holes I do not ever recall partnering to take a poo maybe my sisters did as girls seem to have a bond boys only do when standing up not in but outside like every burly man Did the ancients use their hands wash, wipe them in puddle, stream or river where they did a cleansing ritual or did they use the nearest leaf or frond green or autumn crisp brown? Ah, such a mystery our past we like the animals Just naturally gifted to dispose to cleanly from ...

Cherry Tree Seer 🌳 🍒 🍒 🌳 How often did he climb to sit in his tree ‘balcony’ amidst branches bare or leaved as cherries grew, wild and free Beneath the Mason Dixon Line we called wild, green, then red to black cherry fame but when he later moved to New England chokecherry tree was it’s Yankee name The tree was small, but branched into a triangle shape towards the fields there he built is plank “tree-house” for the view that it did with grace yield He was higher than the shed below once it had been a corral for cow or horse partly a garage it now was became his fun where an art studio, afresh was it’s course there he with his friend young Bob drew cartoons that no one it seemed but they read maybe once or twice a reading did preform in the tree triange stage above their head across the fields, the meadows the farmer planted various crops so each year the view to the woods a dance with growing bottom to top So lovely was it looking acr...

  Mortal Life We sit upon a stool milking our sweet hope Creaming, working, playing to open up and see Some believe in the stable safe afterlife To join God in heavenly pastures  eternally Truth be told afterlife is of little worth  For we shall be buried six feet underground As soil becomes our caressing blanket Melting into earth the cycle goes round & round Death will turn our light to darkness The unknown shall we see and be Before Father and mother, who birthed Created that little baby that was/is thee May your adventure be like a book Each page opening a continued light new Learning as much diving flying into fathoms Of our brown green earth to sky rainbow blue Study mingle with all kinds of people In our nation we can know a variety of folk Around the world a panorama of all life Each human kind wide culture do evoke  learn the ideas, history, skills and crafts Each day a treasure chest, open to be viewed To live in kindly battle, seriously and true Devour...
