W&N watercolour on Bockingford 300gsm
Coco, my Crow and companion for 20 years
I'm a crow on a bough
battered by the winds
I've got shelter indeed
but Ill brave it for my sins
I'm the sun on a snowdrop
opening from it's sleep
I've got a world to light
but on it's petals I'll beat
I'm the dogs at your door
begging to be fed
but if you feed me once
your step will make my bed
like a worm in a worm hole
thoughts tunnel my mind
I am all of these things
these exist within mankind

This is lovely too. Came from seeing your work on Sketching in nature. Love this of Coco too. They are such fun birds to watch.
ReplyDeleteI've just replied to your comment in Sketching in Nature Cris! Glad you like this one and thanks for stopping by here too!
DeleteI'm sorry you no longer have Coco as a companion, Maree. The time we have with these special animal friends is always too short, yet we carry them with us all the time in other ways. Thank you for telling us about Coco and her playful habits. I know you must miss her.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your posts and seeing your part of the world through your delightful sketches.
I had trouble posting on the "Sketching In Nature" blog, so I looked to see if you might have your own blog! Now I can look through your wonderful sketches more often.
Thank you for your kind thoughts Louise, I do miss Coco but then, I do have some lovely memories. Thanks for popping over here, it's great to see you!
DeleteThis is lovely Maree. A wonderful memory ...
ReplyDeleteThank you Elizabeth, memories are forever and ever!
DeletePets are always dear to us, no matter the type. Lovely sketch!
ReplyDeleteYou are so right Haley. Thanks for your visit, appreciate that!
