Making up with the Moon, Singleton Hippie Art

Making up with The Moon

SOLD

I danced barefooted
in the blue green tidal pool...
a make believe paisley water garden,
salty and cool..
And waved good~bye to
The Ocean.

She was
running off to meet Eternity,
her giant seafoam petticoat dragging the sand...
trinkets and treasures tumbling from her
pockets...

A love affair that never ended....

And then I felt you...
there in the night....
in the damp seaside breeze...
saw you in the face of the Moon...
smiling...

God, I love fairytales....

Artwork 8 1/2 by 11.Colored markers, pencils, ink and memories from hippie beach on cardstock.

Singleton Hippie Art, Make Believe

Make Believe
(c) Singleton 2009

And there, in our technicolor
imaginations, we
painted a Fairytale...

Scribbled
the story
on blue lined paper,
bathroom walls
and cocktail napkins...

And sprinkled them

in the wind,

a paper trail of words...

cookie crumbs for the curious

or the non believers...

I imagine

your smile now...

your head tossed back

in accidental

delicious laughter,

as you read the Ending...

a single word...

Standing lonely guard on the empty page...

"Unfinished"

11 x 15 watercolors, markers, ink and all that hippie hoo~hah on Strathmore cold press paper.

And in the morning....
Long before sunrise,
wide eyes
and the scratchy sound
of the Morning News
wakes the world,
She's a Mermaid....

Finger painting little "I love you"s...
in the sand...
Splashing in paisley colored tidal pools...
gathering periwinkles for hide and sink,
Etch~a~sketching tatted lace
from the footprints of
tiny sideways crabs
and Seagulls on parade...

The Girl with The Swirl...

9 x 12 Watercolor with colored pencils, markers and sharpies. Because I believe in the Ocean. And in 10 days, she'll believe in me again...
