Artist Shelly Wilkerson Sundance Poem

Sundance - yet another fun painting by Shelly Wilkerson. Here's the poem to introduce you to the characters!
My lovely lady, sweet nymphet, your smile lights up my day. Your lilting laugh and twinkling eyes will lead my mind astray. Our Golden Years so spirited, our joy so full and fun, We pirouette and rise to meet the morning’s rising sun, Water sprite in playful splash, your charm and lure convey, Your beauty, soft and seasoned as a summer-swathed Monet, The warmth you give, your gentle touch that melts my grateful heart, I’ve always known that you and I should never be apart, You pivot, plié, arabesque, a sun dance in ballet, A love of life, a love for me that I can n’er betray, Come sit, my Love and watch the dawn descend into the West, It’s time for liniment’s soothing rub so little feet can rest.

Southern Rose Poem by Shelly Wilkerson

Her dainty hand is finely gloved She strikes a timid pose All the gents have dearly loved This Carolina Rose
Mah Deah, Ya shoulda seen it! Mah Cotillion an' comin' out! Ah dazzled 'em with mah fem'nin chah-ms, The young men swooned about! "Marrah me", all the gentlemen said "Marrah me an' be mah wife. Ya kin' even bring yer mutha, Deah. Ah'll love ya all mah life!" But Ah was nary smitten once, Despite each winsome way. Ah decided to wait for Mistah Right, Who'll come along one day.

Rose is one of my favorite Shelly Wilkerson characters. When you get to know her through the poem, she makes you realize there is little pointing in waiting for perfection - chase down your dreams and make them come true!

The Power of Chocolate Shelly Wilkerson Poem

Couldn't find my slippers when I got up today. Teeth fell in the ter'let and flushed 'em clean away. Coffee ground volcano sprouted from my percolator. Some bone-totin' dog just dug a front yard crater. Pension check is late againand bills are overdue. Got a little headache and maybe caught the flu. Kitty's full of matted fur and won't hold still for combin'. Brought a dead thing in last night after all night roamin'. Forgot to go down to the store to get a thing of milk. Started pressing my best blouse and nearly burned the silk. My great red wine is nearly gone. I'm down to my last swig. Time to get the magic out and make myself a pig....Reached into the cabinet's rear and got a little box. Usually have to keep it hid. Needs a case with locks. Kids show up and sniff it out and just want to deplete it. I just save it for these time sI really need to eat it. When my darkest days are here it really comes in handy. So I owe my sanity to this sweet chocolate candy.

Shelly Wilkerson My Jewels Poem

Shelly's "My Jewels" Poem:
Come to my room just down the hall, and see my precious jewels. Just sit quietly. Do not touch. I'm sure you know the rules! I've collected only finer things, from places that I've been, And when I die I'll leave it all, to all those "next of kin". I'm only living here for now. My summer home is rented. I'll drive there in my auto soon. (It's just a little dented). My daughter married well indeed; a Texas oil tycoon! I'll be moving in some day, and she'll be coming soon. That porcelain rose in that charming vase is really very brittle. My china plates, from Monkey Wards, are only chipped a little. My silver plated coffee pot is only slightly rusty. I should have fixed the handle, and it's just a little dusty. My pearls are from the Orient, 'Chinatown', I think. Touch the silky elegance of my genuine faux-fur mink! My cat is an aristocrat with known distinctive breeding. She tells me this each afternoon if I should miss her feeding! My rhinestones and my sparkles are diamonds in the rough. I'd purchase more at the 5 & dime, but I really have enough. It's strange to be a higher class than those folks down the hall. Some day I'll give a big soiree, and I'll invite them all.

I'm sure I know this lady. Of course we all think that whenever we look at another Shelly Wilkerson painting! The truth is, I feel better when I think I know the character than when it reminds me of my relatives - which is often he case!
Regardless, they always make us smile, and while we use art sometimes to make a room brighter, or to drive home a theme, what better purpose for at is there, than making us smile?!

Shelly Wilkerson Miriam's Tea Party

Shelly's "Miriam's Tea Party" Poem

Off to Miriam's to attend her "Tea", with my old cronies, 'Cat' and me. Scoured closets for clothes to wear, powdered my face, patted my hair. Grabbed my keys and out the door, to meet the 'girls' at half past four. Bought a teensy gift of wine, for Miriam's nightcap at half past nine. Teas and cakes adorn the table, Edith's there and so is Mabel. Formosa Oolong, Mocha Dream, English Breakfast, Pumpkin Cream. "Why not pop the cabernet? (Unless you'd rather have Earl Grey?)" A couple rounds and then it's 'spent', which set the tone of this event. "Bring another, dear", we said, and one appeared from 'neath the bed. Fits of giggles, fits of grins, old photos spring from muffin tins. Talk about the days gone by, and when we girls could turn the eye. Another bottle from way in back, behind the spice and canning rack, "My dear, I've never stayed this late! It's time to drunken decorate! "Out of closets out of drawers, knees are cracking on all fours. Out come swatches, chips of paint, to turn this room to what it ain't. Carrot Cream is just the hue, for kitchen walls and carpet too. Icing squishes through the fingers. Naughty feeling as it lingers. After just a few more swigs, we've topped our tipsy, flipped our wigs. We've succumbed to wine and cigarettes, danced and practiced pirouettes. Smeared each other with the cake, that Mabel took so long to bake. But now we must adhere to rules, wash our faces, keep our cools. "Must have been the Oolong Tea. I don't remember much Chablis. "It really isn't fit and proper, to upend one's mate into the hopper! Next week we'll eliminate the cakes, so we won't make the same mistakes!
