A Maiden's Prayer Answered.



 Oh, God, is this one of your tricks?
You nasty old five (*****)!
You promised to help me,
 So why did you give me
To Salvador Dali to fix!?

 Trying to rhyme 'Dali', leads one to Bob Marley on a Harley so I abandoned that idea and employed the good old set of (five) asterisks to denote a word one would rather not commit to print. Find more erudite contributions at Magpie Tales.

    Just shows we needn't mess around with works of art. Just shows artists can get way with it, however. Nicely Stafford!

      Thanks Helen, nice to be back and...
      I'd rather ride to Bali
      With Bob Marley on his Harley
      Than have my portrait painted
      By that Salva-bloody Dali!

      Just riding to Bali
      On Bob Marley’s Harley
      Steering clear of the artist named Dali
      A scoundrel, a cad
      A real Svengali

    Clever and funny! But what's wrong with a little Bob Marley? Dali is strange.
