But at least hers was the bestThe bright crepe
paper flowers around the wagon's sides were soggy, but still bright
And "Kennedy's Emporium" in silver gilt tinsel shone clearly through
the rain drops caught in itThe big barrels labelled "flour," sugar,"
cornmeal,"
"molasses,"
"coffee,"
"salt" were empty, she knew, so no
damage was done there
And the tin washtubs and washboards wouldn't rustThe iron kettles
were damaged anyhow |
