As one who cons at evening o'er an album all alone, And muses on the faces of the friends that he has known, So I turn the leaves of Fancy, till in shadowy design I find the smiling features of an old sweetheart of mine. - An Old Sweetheart of Mine [Love] God bless us every one, prayed Tiny Tim, Crippled and dwarfed of body yet so tall Of soul, we tiptoe earth to look on him, High towering over all. - God Bless Us Every One [Blessings] Say good-bye er howdy-do-- What's the odds betwixt the two? Comin'--goin'--every day-- Best friends first to go away-- Grasp of hands you'd ruther hold Than their weight in solid gold, Slips their grip while greetin' you,-- Say good-bye er howdy-do? - Good-Bye er Howdy-Do [Parting] Just the wee cot--the cricket's chirr-- Love and the smiling face of her. - Ike Walton's Prayer [Home] An' all us other children, when the supper things is done, We set around the kitchen fire an' has the mostest fun A-list'nin' to the witch tales 'at Annie tells about An' the gobble-uns 'at gits you Ef you Don't Watch Out! - Little Orphant Annie [Story Telling] O'er folded blooms On swirls of musk, The beetle booms adown the glooms And bumps along the dusk. - The Beetle [Beetles] One naked star has waded through The purple shallows of the night, And faltering as falls the dew It drips its misty light. - The Beetle [Stars] The ripest peach is the highest on the tree. - The Ripest Peach [Fruits : Peaches] And the humming-bird that hung Like a jewel up among The tilted honeysuckle horns They mesmerized and swung In the palpitating air, Drowsed with odors strange and rare. And, with whispered laughter, slipped away And let him hanging there. - The South Wind and the Sun [Hummingbirds] And the South Wind--he was dressed With a ribbon round his breast That floated, flapped, and fluttered In a riotous unrest And a drapery of mist From the shoulder to the wrist Floating backward with the motion Of the waving hand he kissed. - The South Wind and the Sun [Wind] And the sun had on a crown Wrought of gilded thistledown, And a scarf of velvet vapor And a raveled rainbow gown; And his tinsel-tangled hair Tossed and lost upon the air Was glossier and flossier Than any anywhere. - The South Wind and the Sun [Sun] I don't know how to tell it--but ef such a thing could be As the angels wantin' boardin', and they'd call around on me-- I'd want to 'ccommodate 'em--all the whole-in-durin' flock-- When the frost is on the punkin and the fodder's in the shock. - When the Frost is on the Punkin [Pumpkins] O, it sets my heart a clickin' like the tickin' of a clock, When the frost is on the punkin and the fodder's in the shock. - When the Frost is on the Punkin [Autumn]
