Dollars and Sense Still Life Watercolor by Daily Painter Bertie Brown - Art is Instrumental

Dollars and Sense

original watercolor still life with beach theme: 22" x 22"

and the donkey said

to the fishies and the shells

no I haven’t lost my head

but I do think I’m like, well

so much smarter than you guys

though the dollars do make cents

and the starfish lights the sky

with his one and only eye, whence

the conch’s divine design

lets us hear the ocean sighs

while those fishies on the tray

simply swim their life away

so I wonder as I wander

trotting through this beachy work

does my common horse sense

make much more cents

than the dollars

near my collar

is that fish of golden color

rich in gold, hence,

much more smarter

than myself and all the others
