THE1 POFVOOKN MAN
There's a queer little man lives 1
down the street
"Where two of the broadest high
ways miest,
In a queer little house that's half
of It glass,
With wlndoys open to all who pass,
And a low little roof that'11 nearly
Oat,
And a chimney as black as papa's
bos'- hat. . 1
Oh, the house 19 built on this Cun
■y plan.
Because i''s the home of the pop
corn man!
How does ha sleep, if he Bleeps-at
all?
He must roll up like a' rubber ball,
Or lik» a squirrel, and stora him
self
All huddly-cuddly under the shelf.
It he wanted to stretch' he'd scarce
have space
In his bars little, spare little, squar
little place.
He seems liha a rat cooped up in a
caa, 1,
This brisk little, friak little pop
corn man!
I know he is wise by the way he
looks.
For he's Just like the men I've
seen in hooks.
With, his hair worn off, and his
squinty eyes.
And hiB wrinkles, too,—oh I know
he'g wise.
And then, just v of the way lie
makes
The corn all jump into Bnowy flakes,
With a "pop! pop;! pop!" in his
covered pan,
IhL; queer litlto, dear little pop
corn man!
