Violin cub



Here's an oldie: a violin playing foxboy I drew for a flyer advertising music lessons for children. In my experience violinlessons were always a very serious thing indeed, so I wanted to emphasize the fun in playing this instrument.

Queen of Kittens

Oh, my succulent sweetie
my velvet ball of purring
my perfect, blackest tigercubling
oh burbling wittle kitty!

Oh mijn malse meisje
mijn schattig kattenboutje
klein zwartpootig koboldrvrouwtje
oh pollewoppig poezelijsje!

This year's easter egg.







The riotous red of flamelicked locks
has left a key for he that knocks.

Harehatted Girl


One morning, as I came tripping down the stairs
my father noticed my hair was like a hare's.
"Take of that silly hat" he spat "this minute, miss!"
I stood still, made quite uncomfortable by this.

"Dad..." I began, dragging my eyes from his irrate stare,
this is my normal hair... it just looks like a hare's."

"I dreamed them up one day, I'm unsure how,
and these ears just sprouted out my brow!
I can comb them and they do this bounce that I love
and they stop my earphones from slipping off."

This I explained as I inched 'round to make good my escape.
"Anyway, I've got to run, I'm late, I'm terribly, terribly late!"

Autumnal Riding Hood


Aan het grazige gras
op het vossige mos
in sappige schaduw
in lommer en luw

On knowing knoll
on resting crest
in crisping whistling
leafy evening
