Pat worked all year, given much praise
Skips to the bank, twenty-five cent raise
Now car needs a tire
House repairs are dire
Pat O’Brien’s pay gone in a blaze!

Camellia
piercing winter gloom camellia blooms softly such a lovely sight. In winter, in the arboretum and the yards in our region, camellias blooms. Camellia is a tea family plant with lovely flowers. In Japan, camellias have been painted very frequently. Here is one by me (watercolor).
