The text and paintings on The Trowbridge Chronicles are taken from the illustrated journal of Violet Trowbridge, a shrew that once lived in a village deep in the Olympic Rain Forest. Each new post will represent a portion of Mrs. Trowbridge’s journal.

WHAT'S INSIDE?

Here's more from the poetry pages of Mrs. Trowbridge's journal. She would adapt to the needs of her readers, and it seems that she often used her clever limericks to entertain her children and grand children. This poem will continue for the next few episodes.

Join me for our next Painting in Paradise trip in July. We're making plans now for a Painting in Paradise watercolor workshop on the exotic Caribbean island of St. Thomas, in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Contact me at bronsmith@gmail.com if you'd like to join us. Also, the big trip will be here before we know it, the Painting in Paradise Rarotonga workshop in the South Pacific. We leave on January 10, 2020. For details: http://bronsmith.googlepages.com

I like your poem and am anticipating the 'outcome' of this pale blueish speckly spotted jumping egg...

This is delightful. All my best to Violet. She is extremely multi talented. Today I was given an old edition of Tennyson printed in 1884... I have to say it is much easier to understand Violet's rhymes!
