Mr. Buckley what’s your riddle
Smoke your pipe and rest a little
Catch a fish or play the fiddle
Mr. Buckley what’s your riddle
Mr. Buckley what’s your riddle
Smoke your pipe and rest a little
Catch a fish or play the fiddle
Mr. Buckley what’s your riddle
Ghosts that haunt Algonquin Park
A century from dawn ‘til dark
Painted lakes complete an arc
Ever burnishing a mark
Growing up in northern scenes
Wildflowers, season themes
Some pastoral and serene
Some are places I have been
Blowing Up in northern scenes
Jack Pine and season themes
Some pastoral and serene
Some are places I have been
And if they have time to speak
Form and colour, brush technique
Pine and Cedar, lakes and creeks
Elitist pricks and artist cliques
A Northern River masterpiece
Another great one At The Crease
Six of those and six of these
Ever swirling in the breeze
Mr. Buckley what’s your riddle
Smoke your pipe and rest a little
Catch a fish or play the fiddle
Mr. Buckley what’s your riddle

I've always liked this one. Here's a bad demo.
