Excerpt from Bits of Verse and Prose

There was a what-not in that little parlor, and there, on one Christmas day, she put her only gift, a highly colored candy rooster. She could not sleep that night for wondering if the candy rooster would still be there in the morning. Every day she would steal into the room to fondle the bit of brightly painted sugar, and would allow herself only the privilege of sucking just a wee taste ofi the base. But one awful day a little boy named Joe slipped into the parlor unseen, and there he found the candy rooster and heartlessly devoured it.
