art appreciation

"funraisers" by Sandra Jones Cambell

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

three smart Women

of serious mien

In need of culture felt

So into a car, open-topped

They cruised

For art, their hearts to melt

But first a bite! They thought themselves

And perhaps a dollop

The Terrace was lovely, The food not good

But the drinks ~ they packed a wallop

A gallery or two they thought

And then perhaps a claret

For art , we know, will cleanse the soul

And so perchance the palate

Yay ~ on they wandered, room to room

To bistro , bar and patio

Till, hark; a tavern! they have art!

And the music made them glad-io

they spoke in Arabic along the way

or so the town drunk told them

they laughed and ate and pondered art

so there! Thou das't not scold them!
