Maud Muller In Kansas.

Maud Muller once on a summer day
Went out on the prairie to rake some hay.
Her father was shy of hired man, SO
Miss Maud, though she kicked, was obleere,
to 20.
She raked for while, then began to think.
And her thonghts were 50 hard you coul,
hear them ehink.
For manual labor gave her a pain.
Aud she longed to skip from that Kausa,
plain
She oft had read in the Busy Rec
Ot Colorado, where women arc free.
Shed read how her sex was allowed TO vote
And in lodges to ride the mystic goat.
Could run tor Office whene'er they chose.
Wear semi'trousers and crushed pink hose
And the way tha, the grinders cut the gum
Would star,le am angel from Kingdom
Come
She almost determined TO give the shake
10 the raneh'girl's burden, the old hay rake.
And flee to the suffrage paradise
Where the matter of sex never cuts no ice.
wild bee hungerly took sip
From the honey punched on her red, ripe
lip,
And told her she'd better stay right there
And bloom as q Kansas sunnower fair.
meadow lark lodged her swinging rake
Aud told her that suffrage was all fake,
butterfly lii on her sunburned ear
And whispered "Your headwheels arc
out of gear
grasshopper peeped from the emerald sod
And twittered 'We can never spare Won.
Maud 20
a blaeksnake said with warning hiss
"Remember the Garden of Eden, Slss -
ehipmunk chirped from near by stump /;
"Tut.tut old grille Don't be a chnmpl"
bullload beloved from neighboring
slough
"Don't do it, girl, or yoO'll rue you'll
rue
Aud Maud said To the passing breeze:
81 can never go back on such friends as
these !"
And she swung the rake with new. born
will.
Her soul all thrilled with rustic thrill
And there she stays, and contented sings
with the butterflies, birds and snakes and
things.
