Lone Star Letter
Dear Ma and Pa,
I'm at this camp in Texas
I'm having so much fun
Last night I saw a bed bug
It ate my honey bun
The snakes all carry pistols
Armadillos carry augers
The ants carried off my tent
The termites all are loggers
It sure is hot at noonday
They say we're in a drought
Yesterday a dust devil
Turned the creek about
They told me about coyotes
Howling at the moon
After hearing them last night
I hope I'm leaving soon
I still love Texas all the same
I would like to stay a while
Everyone is nice in Texas
Where an inch measures a mile
Your Son
P.S. You're not going to believe this
But I just had a shock!
That cactus looked so soft and squishy,
But, Ma and Pa, it's NOT!!!
