The Fog
Artist
Dame Nature did a landscapeÑ
A modernistic oneÑ
But Neptune criticized
it
A Ôwhen sheÕd got it done.
ÒThat ainÕt no female
paintinÕ,
ItÕs plain enough to see;
YouÕll have to add a little
mist
To add real mystery.
Yas, there still is
somethinÕ needed
In all of it, my dear.
ThoÕ youÕve got too much of
everythinÕ
YouÕre lacking atmosphere.Ó
And then he dipped his fog
brush
Into the silvery sea
And blended all with lovinÕ
touch
Till there was mystery.
