For Michael

Thine echoes of thy inner self
The Subconscious
Like Child's Play
Like the Song
Of the Dolphin
Full of Play

Mathieu
You have saddened us
Could you please
Remember
That trouble Courts
Where Trouble Goes
And otherwise
Clean the Slate
And be a Gentleman
In Future

The Prime Minister is coming to Paeroa!

We'll have to make sure
The Rainbow
Flag is Out!

Hi

T'is
A Beautiful
Day
In New Zealand
And the Aussies
Now visit
Our country
And We them
Isn't it Funny
How sometimes
Negatives
Can quickly Become
Positives!

I am to Privileged to have been part of the Weaver's Success

Sleepy Joe just got caught in the Act

Of being on the couch
On a Sunny Afternoon

I raised the Flag on the Art Society Today

It is a Rainbow

One of the other Clay Artist was Inspired by my "Nude Derriere"

That she did a Torso
It is very Good!
It is not for Sale
Because she will
Treasure it

It is a Sunny day

And I'm off to do Pottery
I made a Forget me knot!

It is another Crisp Winter Day

Washing dishes
In the Morning
Does have its
Advantages
In the Winter
One can Warm
Their Hands

Sunshine in Winter

Lisa and Joanne and I will hopefully be singing at my 50th

And we shall
Pour
Sweet Australian
And New Zealand Wine
And we shall Party

Who sings on the Wings of an Angel please?

To Thomas Brackens Song

It is a Gray Winter Evening in Paeroa

This Little Girl

Peter has now suggested that we should Carve Squirrls,Acorns and Kiwis

And if cars were the blood cells in the Arteries of the Country

Then I suggest
That we Drive
Safely

Je Suis Une Artiste

I am wearing my Rainbow hat and I am about to visit Mrs Granny Smith Apple

In a World that will be Safe
For our children!
The National Party
And Labour
The Maori Party
And the Greens
Will be Fighting
To the Same Ends
Without
The Friction
And the Name calling
Toward Saving the World!
Our Gallant Soldiers Go

My Scarf that I am Knitting

Is going to be called
"Pohutukawa"
After the soft pink
Stamens
On the Flower

Oh no!

Mrs Granny Smith forgot the Bacon
So now I am Officially
An Egg!

I'm away to make Bacon and Egg Pie

One again I hope the Pigs
Were Happy!!

And David has been Judged and found Not Guilty

And David's Mother
Would make this Plea
Please stop Judging Him
I believe that he is an Innocent Man
So can we please STOP hounding Him

It is Monday in New Zealand

Perhaps one would like to make an Aeolian Harp

A Wind Instrument
In the Shape of a Whales Tail
Which I call Poseidon's Harp

A cold night should do it.....

And I shall have Russian Fudge
To serve my Painter
Tomorrow

I have tried to make Russian Fudge

Perhaps I did not cook it well enough
Fingers crossed

P.s. My Russian Fudge came out like soft toffee. Not unlike the Coconut Ice I served to my father On Halloween two days before he died. In Heaven we regain our Innocence

I did get to share Communion after all

And I am not imagining

I saw the Sceptre again!

I just managed to Complete a child's game!

Success

Test

The All Blacks put up a Gallant
Effort
In the Second Half
But the French won Today!
Congrats

Micro Soft Colours

Blue Heart Day

I am wearing my Red Hat

And have boiled the Sweet
Granny Smith Apple
From the Tree
Peter likes it just so!

I am cooking Bacon

I hope the Pigs had a Happy Life!

And today I am Mrs Granny Smith!

I saw a Sceptre in my Crystal Ball

I saw a Sceptre in my Crystal Ball

I made Porridge

And now that the Sun is Shining
I shall go for a walk!
In our beautiful green country side!

Flower

"Party Central" sounds Great!

Life must be one long Party!

Rainbow

Sunset

Oops!

Painting of John Key, The Prime Minister

I'm off to work upon my female Torso

Perhaps I will bring back a photo

It has become a Derriere
That I have named "Hanky Spanky"
Because of the way I was
Patting it into Shape

The Clay is Abbots Red!

But Yesterday I was bathed in Pink

And All the Colours of the Rainbow plus Turquiose

Green is my favourite Colour

I was overjoyed to have a visit from my friends John and Sandra

It was wonderful
And so special
That I wore some Bling!
They brought Indian Curry
And I made Raisin Scones
That were successful
Thank you God!
I picked apples for mys friends
And for the neighbours
And Peter fed the happy horses
I pulled the Washing in
As ordered
And Sandra liked my use of Expression in my Painting!

Collin McCahon

I truly felt inspired yesterday
And my work resembles a Collin McCahon!
I am glad I picked up my paint brush!

Flax Exercises

Flax Exercise practised in Paper
And some Lillies I have woven.
It is against Protocol to harvest
Flax or Harakeke in the rain

Oh I almost forgot

My Ballerina has come home!

Peter is so keen to Plait

That he is making a Reindeer
Out of Paper.
Johnny Mulvay is espousing
The benifits
Of Courses like this
And I totally agree
That it is Imperative
That we Maintain
"Hobby" Classes

Pony

I'm sorry it is raining for the Field Days

With so many clever people at the Field Days
Including Gareth Morgan
And John Key
I hope a little Sun shines today!

I have committed a Cardinal Sin and made Fudge Again

I have committed a Cardinal Sin and made Fudge Again!

Star and Beautiful People

I could not show the Beautiful people as yet because they are working on a garment for wearable Arts and it is Top Secret!

The Art of Flax Weaving

Peter is mastering
The Art of Weaving Flax or Harakeke
Mine is simply the Art
Of Observing the Beautiful People
Doing Beautiful Work

Sending Love From God

I am wearing Zee Beret from Gay Paris

And I am painting
The painting
Is called
Gods
Green Tear
For all the Rivers
Of Blood
That have been Cried
In his name
My Hypnotherapist
Helped me to bathe
My Spirit
In the colour Green
With a Purple Heart
For God

Back Nude

And perhaps David Bain himself deserves a Knighthood

For surviving an unbalanced Justice System

I am so happy for David that he is finally found Innocent

When the Press insisted on painting him as a Convicted Mass Murder for Thirteen Years. Jo Karam was right about the Naughty Press and Media Coverage. You should feel ashamed. And with not a weekend past people are saying that they are "over the Bain word since the verdict has been read. How shallow are we as a community?
