The Owl and the Pussycat

The owl and the pussycat

Went to sea

The owl ate the pussycat

Oh deary me

Much better, certainly as far as the poetry goes!

Er... thanks. Less is more I always think.

I agree - the illustration is very poor. A 4 year old could do better!

Roger Stevens said...

It's lovely, Michael!!!!

What I meant was that the poetry used for this piece was better than the original and not that the artwork was bad as it is very good and while on the subject, the first comment I left on the previous post was a joke, a tease, a wind-up. I think Michael's art is fantastic and I would love for him to illustrate something of mine. sadly, it is me that lacks the talent and not Micheal nor indeed Roger. Sorry if my attempt at a bit of leg pulling was as stupid as I now feel.

On the other hand it gave us all something to think and write about. Which is nice...
