A poem by Ruth McEnery Stuart

The Top-Knot Hen

________________________________________________
Title:     The Top-Knot Hen
Author: Ruth McEnery Stuart [More Titles by Stuart]

Hit's a proper pride in Sis' Top-knot's breast
Dat makes 'er step to march 'er crest;
Yit jalousy follers 'er 'roun' de shed
On de count o' dat innercent tufted head.
An' she ain't by 'erself pursued lak dat--
No, she ain't by 'erself in dat.







[The end]
