Mind-Reading

CARRY ON TUESDAY

This week's quote comes from Sir Joshua Reynolds.

The line in blue is a quote from the famous artist.

MIND-READING

A room hung with pictures is a room hung with thoughts;

Thoughts, I'm afraid, of different sorts.

Arthur gazes at a naked figure

And wishes it had been painted bigger!

Gladys looks at the same bold scene

And she thinks it is quite obscene!

Fred takes a look and thinks 'Not my type.

In my opinion she's over-ripe!'

May, who's obsessed with cellulite,

Thinks 'If I undressed I'd look a fright!'

Guy, the local Man of the Cloth,

Thinks 'That deserves the Grapes of Wrath!'

Felicia, who's young and pretty,

Thinks 'I've never posed and that's a pity!'

Bertie, a lad who's not too smart,

Thinks 'So that is why they take up art!'

A myriad thoughts buzz round the place,

And you'd never guess them from each face!

In cartoons thoughts always appear

As a sort of cloud looking really clear.

But all that we can do is guess

As they view a lady without a dress!
