 | Poetry of the Farm and Rural Life |  |
The story ended, and the flip
Went circling round from hand to lip;
The stranger paid the shot, you see,
Because they'd listened patiently.
Then conversation grew more gay;
Most had some funny thing say,
Till by degrees their stories grew
Warped sadly from the truth askew.
Went circling round from hand to lip;
The stranger paid the shot, you see,
Because they'd listened patiently.
Then conversation grew more gay;
Most had some funny thing say,
Till by degrees their stories grew
Warped sadly from the truth askew.
