A poem by Ruth McEnery Stuart

The Alligator

________________________________________________
Title:     The Alligator
Author: Ruth McEnery Stuart [More Titles by Stuart]

Br'er Alligator kin grin a mile,
But dey ain't no inducemint in his smile;
Whilst he ain't no race-horse, yit dey say
A little alligator goes a mighty long way.
But he ain't by 'isself in dat, in dat--
But he ain't by 'isself in dat.







[The end]
Ruth McEnery Stuart's poem: Alligator
