Verse and worse

Vincent van Gogh once painted a crow
Its plumage was white as the purest snow
And when Warhol returned from far-off Guadeloupe
He brought ten crates of canned Campbell's Soupe

  4. Sandi, you have a deal. If it's a creamy potato soup, we have a deal.

  5. In real, if you found a white plumed crow
    Would you keep it or would you just throw?
    Before you decide what to do, it may swoop
    And take off eating a good portion of your soup!

    My lame attempt to match with yours.:)

  6. Two different styles
    One, soup in the aisles
    Another very long ago
    Still waits for the ear to grow

  7. LOL My money would be on the rooster rather than the soup. Never did get that canned thing as art, too much like advertising. I'm with you and Sandi on the cream of potato soup with leeks. Yum!

    Cheers,
    Lee

  8. Salvador Dali would paint from a dream
    Just like the nightmare of Edvard Munch's Scream
    Alcohol influenced works of Jackson Pollock's
    Which frankly are just a load of old bo***cks

    (oops sorry ...blush)

  9. Said Van Gough, "Warhol, mate, Look 'ere!"
    "OK" said Warol, "but you've lost an ear!"
    Vincent said, "With knife was cut
    me lughole - now I'm in a rut!
    Now whenever I do paint
    I invariably do feel faint!"
