Title

Overheard in the Cornfield

Caption

Said young Mr. Pumpkin, To old Mr. Squash, "Do you think Mr. Corn overhears What we say when we talk Of his self-conscious stalk, And his moving Miss Melon to tears?" "I cannot decide," Mr. Squash then replied, "But I've had my suspicions for years; Because he's so tall He can lean over all; Then look at the size of his ears." A page from Sandman Rhymes (also published a "Fun and Rhymes), 1904, written by H.M. Caldwell and illustrated by George Willard Bonte (1873-1946).
