"Island Siren" © Johanna Bohoy, 2016, Watercolor, 8x10
White Washed & Blue
Deep blue water, pale blue sky,
sunshine whites, and fuschia brights.
Drink in hand, barefoot, and free.
A siren from the sea is calling me.
"Cat's House" © Johanna Bohoy, 1990, pastel.
Cat’s House
Classical ruins.
Ancient & rare.
Tourists: “Do not touch!"
~
But the cat will.
It’s his home.
The column– his couch.
The sun– his heat.
A privileged king in his castle.

Light caught in Greece
The day is long
The sun slow to leave.
The light is caught
and the shadows wait.
The door– soon to close
and the flowers to bed.
Goodnight Greece.
~ Johanna Bohoy
