A little dog was sleeping At the bottom of the sea In the painting of Dali He was there all the time But we didn’t see it Till a touch of divination Wakens up imagination And a hand of inspiration Brushes paint on the surface Of the canvas and we see Gentle hand of a little girl Lifting the edge of the veil Of the deep dreamy ocean Slowly revealing the motion Of cozy sandy landscape Of the bottom of the sea And in awe suddenly we see A spotted dog cozy resting In the canvas of Dali He was there all the time But we saw only plain Reflection of the sky On the surface of the water And the ripples swinging by We did not see below the screen Of the mass of bluish green Body of the ocean
