How Sambo Made His Millions

Ladies and Gentlemen, good folks gather round! What I have here to show you is worth every pound. It will soothe your dry bunions, seal your canoe, Moisten your leather, and stretch your shampoo. At my own huge expense, from India to thee, The famous, spectacular, Big Jumbo’s Ghee! I’ve used it as wheel lube from here to Mumbai. It can quiet your babies at night when they cry. It can mollify itching from poisonous plants. It will ease the infirm of their ravings and rants. No sir, not a swindle, this is no evil boast. You can even put Ghee on your pancakes and toast! Just so, Sambo travelled from hamlet to town, Selling his Ghee; a half-cup for a pound. Word spread like wildfire, for this was no hoax. Just a golden-brown product that’s good for all folks. He lived very simply, for Sambo was blessed. And sent home his millions so Mumbo could rest! 5/30/17 For the contest “Little Black Sambo by Helen Bannerman”. Sponsored by Debbie Guzzi
