Wooo Whoo! I managed to paint first thing this morning. Now if I can just remember to post it to Leslie’s site. I forgot to do that yesterday. Have a super day everyone! Thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate hearing from you!

Pear Tree by Hilda Doolittle

Silver dust
lifted from the earth,
higher than my arms reach,
you have mounted,
O silver,
higher than my arms reach
you front us with great mass;
no flower ever opened
so staunch a white leaf,
no flower ever parted silver
from such rare silver;
O white pear,
your flower-tufts
thick on the branch
bring summer and ripe fruits
in their purple hearts.

What’s in a name? that which we call a pear
By any other name would taste as sweet;

I know that is not how Shakespeare wrote it, but it works don’t you think? Day five for Leslie Saeta’s September 30 paintings in 30 days Challenge. I decided to return to a favorite, and there may be a few more of these. Who can resist. I love pears. 

I hope you will take a look at all of the great art that is being presented. I just want to visit every artist’s site and tell them how much I enjoy their work, but with so many involved, that may be impossible. I do hope that those of you who visit my site will connect with me here, or on Facebook or LinkedIn. I’d love to keep up with your work.
