Were one to paint a sky as blue
AS some blue skies I've seen;
We're one to paint the trees the hue
Of strong and vivid green
That 'evergreens' in winter wear,
The critics all would say:
THAT artist sure was on tear,
To smear things up that way!
Were one to tint the soil as red
AS in the South I've viewed it;
Were one to paint, when day has fled,
A sky as God has hued it
The critics would arise and shout:
THAT painter mans a nut!
His things are daubs-we'n throw them
out!
For him. Arts doGc3 ere smut"
