Alida Pott

Ali, who's to blame That your artistic flame Ended far too soon It seemed to die out with Your name Ali tell me why What made your ink turn dry What made you hesitate When all the while the days Went by Oh Alida Pott You're on the spot Oh Alida Pott You're so true Ali, come what may Whatever people say Your paintings on the wall Are definitely here To stay Ali did you know Your portraits are on show Your recognition grows The leading lady of The Plough Oh Alida Pott You're on the spot Oh Alida Pott You're so true Have you ever been In a watercolour scene Of blue, white and green Did you ever know Those willows in a row And purple snow Oh Alida Pott You're on the spot Oh Alida Pott You're so true You're so true You're so true
