Man with Blue Guitar
watercolor
20" x 15"
I wake up and I think of you.
I think of Honey.
I think of a Big Room filled with Honey.
I think of a Museum filled with Honey.
I am thankful to you.
I think of my Aunt Bess,
Always taping a lucky penny
To the Birthday Cards she sends me.
The penny has to be new so it looks like gold,
Though it's only copper.
I think of you as I hold my lucky penny
And I am rich.
You make all my paintings for me.
Day dreaming and drifting off
I think of you
And my paintings magically appear
Before my eyes
Made up by themselves.
I used to be in the restaurant business
With my Aunt Bess
Until you took me with you
To a room filled with music.
