View across the road

W&N watercolour on DalerRowney 220gsm heavy-duty sketching paper - unframed

The view across the road from my studio – I stare at this every day, and every day I am amazed at the different play of colours on the landscape….

A Crow's Dream

Corvus capensis (Cape crow, Black crow) - W&N watercolour on Bockingford 300gsm 
- 12" x 8" Unframed 

To build a nest 

with twigs unrest 

lying here, lying there 

to lay some eggs 

and breed some chicks 

to teach them how to click 

to swing in the branches 

and spy through the arches 

to bathe in the poodles 

all cool bathed rooms 

in search of green woods 

fully loaded with ripened fruits 

all life did I stood 

for life and livelihood 

my nest my homes 

one for one crow-hus 

same straws yet new nest 

next time I breast 

sweet life, luxurious breeze 

small problems everything within reach 

friends of mine 

plenty and more 

we dine together 

that is where we gather 

we dirt eat to purify the earth 

our souls divine burn the heaps holy 

Yet I dream of cages untold 

where parrots feed on milk and grains 

mellow fruits are ripe and ready 

anytime to taste without buddies.
