MP3 Audio CD. The Poster-Painter's Masterpiece 'Let us paint a landscape in June,' he cried; 'A Landscape in high June.' And the poster-painter swelled with pride And trilled a merry tune. And he painted five cows in Antwerp blue (For he was a poster-painter true), And the grass they browsed was a light écru And a dark maroon. And the foot of one cow was in the sky, And her horns were pink and green; Her amber tail it curled on high-- A bright and beauteous scene. And a lavender river flowed at her feet With gamboge lilies fragrant and sweet, But some were the color of powdered peat, Some light marine. And another cow's tail was round the sun (Her horns hung limply down); And her tail was white as wool new-spun, And the sun was a neutral brown. In the drab background was a pale-blue lamb Who stood by the side of her turquoise dam, And the sky--a pink parallelogram-- On the lamb closed down. And the rhomboid hills were of ochre hue With trees of lilac white, And… Leer más

MP3 Audio CD. Hullo!' (in The Wit and Humor of America, Vol 09 ) "HULLO!" BY SAM WALTER FOSS W'en you see a man in woe, Walk right up and say "hullo!" Say "hullo," an' "how d'ye do!" "How's the world a usin' you?" Slap the fellow on his back, Bring your han' down with a whack; Waltz right up, an' don't go slow, Grin an' shake an' say "hullo!" Is he clothed in rags? O sho! Walk right up an' say "hullo!" Rags is but a cotton roll Jest for wrappin' up a soul; An' a soul is worth a true Hale an' hearty "how d'ye do!" Don't wait for the crowd to go, Walk right up an' say "hullo!" W'en big vessels meet, they say, They saloot an' sail away. Jest the same are you an' me, Lonesome ships upon a sea; Each one sailing his own jog For a port beyond the fog. Let your speakin' trumpet blow, Lift your horn an' cry "hullo!" Say "hullo," an' "how d'ye do!" Other folks are good as you. W'en you… Leer más

MP3 Audio CD. A Cable-Car Preacher (in The Wit and Humor of America, Vol 04 ) I "'Tis strange how thoughtless people are," A man said in a cable-car, "How careless and how thoughtless," said The Loud Man in the cable-car; And then the Man with One Lame Leg Said softly, "Pardon me, I beg, For your valise is on my knee; It's sore," said he of One Lame Leg. II A woman then came in with twins And stumbled o'er the Loud Man's shins; And she was tired half to death, This Woman Who Came in with Twins; And then the Man with One Lame Leg Said, "Madam, take my seat, I beg." She sat, with her vociferant Twins, And thanked the man of One Lame Leg. III "'Tis strange how selfish people are, They carry boorishness so far; How selfish, careless, thoughtless," said The Loud Man of the cable-car. A Man then with the Lung Complaint Grew dizzy and began to faint; He reeled and swayed from side to side, This poor Man with the Lung Complaint. IV The Woman Who… Leer más

MP3 Audio CD. Business (in Short Poetry Collection 068 ) "How is business?" asks the young man of the Spirit of the Years; "Tell me of the modern output from the factories of fate, And what jobs are waiting for me, waiting for me and my peers. What's the outlook? What's the prospect? Are the wages small or great?" "Business growing, more men needed," says the Spirit of the Years, "Jobs are waiting for right workmen,--and I hope you are the men,-- Grand hard work and ample wages, work piled up in great arrears-- 'Don't see any job particular?' Listen, and I'll tell you then. "There are commonwealths to govern, there are senates to be swayed, There are new states still undreamed of to be founded, New empires in far oceans to be moulded--who's afraid?-- And a couple polar oceans to be sounded. Come on, ye jolly empire-builders, here is work for you to do, And we don't propose to get along without it. Here's the little job of building this old planet over new, And… Leer más
