“Why is a light shoe like a warm summer? Because it makes the corn grow.”
Why is a light shoe like a warm summer?
Because it makes the corn grow.What makes a cow look over the hill?
It can't look through it?What makes a hen pick a pot?

A pot of potatoes, before you pour in water.(continues on next page) - Collector
