Painter Arthur Hughes

Reclusive Arthur Dove
small scale was is first love
Unappreciated critiques were rife
for his collage&assemblages were his life
YOUR LOVE
To have your love would be divine
fore a lifetime of happiness would be mine.
By Arthur James
A man called Arthur Mo
Moved very slow
When he was asked
If he could spare a minute
He answered, "could you just wait for arfer mo"
Master of Music was Arthur Bliss
giving composition his delicate kiss
So varied his accomplished reportoire
straightforward never bizarre
Did King Arthur really exist?
Indeed, the legend does persist.
Scholars of the medieval sphere,
as well as his wife Guenevere,
vehemently insist.
There was a man named Arthur Ritus
Who had some bad dermatitis
His skin fell off in flakes
When he got the shakes
It started to really excite us.
their three-legged race
her left, his right
stymied-knees in between
cross the starting line
with a tricky gait

"King Arthur, get off the couch...
and stand up straight. Don't slouch."
"Who asked you Guinivere -
gimme another beer",
said the legendary grouch.

King Arthur knew not what to do
He pulled it with one hand, then two
He let out a groan
It’s stuck in the stone
And Merlin laughed, Hah, CRAZY GLUE!
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Born on Scottish soil
Both writer and physician, he delivered us Sherlock Holmes.
A spiritualist too, he believed in fairies; possibly in gnomes!
I like Arthur
stack my dishes
high in mounds of glass and steel
like castles in the sink they rise
until the very top
when wet they slip
to their and my demise
A
father
of abstract-
the herd followed
him
Inspired by Cows & Calves by Arthur Dove
(the father of American abstraction)

Arthur
I recall my poor uncle Arthur
sitting on the stoop drinking vodka.
Aunt Martha pulled a shiv;
said he just couldn’t live,
then she boiled his cirrhotic liver

A hot wind blew that day
as I gazed down from the
hills of Tintagel
to the emerald sea and white foam below
that crashed against ancient rocks
and marvelled at ruins
that once was Camelot...
Whimsical & topsy-turvy
A partnership of mirth & hilarity
William,dramatist with much to say
Arthur,leading composer of his day-
With light opera,they made their pay.
Tribute to Gilbert&Sullivan

Fierce mythical dragons
Legends galore
Galloping determined steeds,
Knighthood and more.
King Arthur’s round table
Loves of Queen Guinevere
Come to the library, friend.
They will always be near.
His eyes devour the expanse of heaven
as his soul is driven...
to capture in written sheets.
Pressures lie dull as he walks the night streets.

To a dear friend Arthur Vaso
When she gives a cough or a sneeze
Some wee trickles down past her knees
Her knickers are damp
She smells like a tramp
Dashing home so nobody sees
TITLE INSPIRED FROM A COMMENT BY ARTHUR VASO
28th March 2015
I tried to reason with the Lady of Shalott,
"Be content! Don’t be so distraught!
You may long for the world of Lancelot and Guinevere ~
but let me tell you what’s about to happen there ~
they're about to lose everything they've got."
For your sins
cheaters
clickers
unbelievers
nineteen crimes
peddling dimes
Now I have risen
from the broth
carry on dear soupsters
until I decide
is all for naught
in silence
I reign
King Arthur
fear not
