Higgledy-piggledy,
Tabitha Johnson
went to the marketplace
and bought a cow,
spur of the moment,
unpremeditated.
She had no need for it
but owns it now.
Higgledy-piggledy,
Samuel Swanson
met Tabby halfway home
crying the blues.
“What will I do?” she asked,
gesticulating.
Samuel just smiled at her,
and said, “Well, moo.”
