Darting, dodging, dipping, and diving,
The Damselfly streaks across the sky.

My cotton town is all shadows now. Life itself is boarded shut-- stone-stagnant, cold-condemned, and gasping, but my cotton clock still ticks my cotton song.
Out on the pavement, holding a tin cup, I’m crying: “I am still a cotton-child, a child that lost my home.”

One day, my dad trained a crow to talk and named him Sam. Unfortunately, my dad didn’t teach Sam when to quit talking. Sam was a curious creature and picked up everything--including bad words

Mrs. Cow is very thrilled!
A box is in her mail.
It's from the place she ordered
Lots of socks that were on sale!

The Sun needs to rise, but the Rooster's in bed.
The Cow must be milked.
The Chicks must be fed.
Will the burned-out Rooster wake up?
