‘Tis Monday and just back from extended PLAY,
I drew and I fussed on the ‘puter each day.
While others got messy with glitter and paint
I stuck with my Sharpie, my keyboard, restraint.
For two days I did this here Silliness thing
I worked till my shoulder blade started to sting
But it wasn’t too long ‘fore I gave up and found
that gouache mixed with fingers is happiness bound.
I didn’t work long, though, I had to get back
to my constant companion, the MacBook Pro Mac.
(For Fleep lists and puzzles and drawings of cups —
My deadline, you see, was coming right ups!)
😀

Thanks to Teesha and Tracy Moore for another great event!
Looks like a fun PLAY date!
Ooooo. These are wonderful. I’m a writer and love to compose silly rhyming poetry, which means I am a perfect audience for this poem! I particularly like the forced rhyme with “cups” and that you managed to use the word, “restraint,” one of my favorites!
Hee hee hee! You should perhaps write more poetry! ;->

I love writing silly poems! But I rarely do, because I “can’t write.” But perhaps I should take my own advice and just have fun with it! Thanks!
I’m a writer who didn’t think she could draw ’till I started working with you. I can guarantee you all your principles apply to writing. 😉
These new drawings are beautiful, so expressive!
Thank you!
