Sloan wrote the landscape painter,
But before sending it on Opening Day,
He invited friends to look at the canvas:
What if something did not it?
Attention of visitors, our honored artist!
What kind of criticism now hear it?
Would it be cruel animal trial?
Overthrown? Or Twins?

Connoisseurs come. Picture of elephant discovered
Who's got next, who came closer.
Landscape good! Said seal .- But where snow? There are few things more important than ice!
Forgot garden artist.
The picture was a success, my friends!
But in terms of us, pigs,
All requests received the Sloan.
Again he took a paint
And all your friends as much as
Elephant brush lands,
Having described the snow and ice,
And Neil, and oak, and garden,
And even the honey!
(In case you suddenly Bear
Come now to look ...)
Painting an elephant ready
Friends called an artist again.
Guests look at the landscape
My friend! Do not be such an elephant:
Council should, but with the mind!
All friends are not hard to please,
Himself as only harm.
