Poem
Mary Davis dwelled on a fruit farm, adoring the company of animals. Most beloved was sociable Sam, who made her giggle, like bubbles! Whereas Mary was seven-years-old, Sam, her lamb, was still a baby, Given to Mary by best neighbors, when they played in orange daisies. Sam's white fleece was soft and fluffy, like a mound of feather pillows; Like clouds of endless, turquoise skies, blown by breezes, into billows. Sweet-natured Sam and Mary's bond, was special. Soon inseperable! As one, they chased sun; like heaven seen, through rainbow's portal. Friends found fanciful, skipping Mary, in the far-out days of fabulous, Under butterscotch sun of fascination, soon cherry red, as an amulet. Fabled days told a faceted story of time, in faddish phases of flowers; As family finished delaying finally, visiting dreamy, dusk's lemon sours. Sam was usually someplace to be seen, but sometimes he wandered; And Mary sought him out-like privacy loving night, soon squandered. The 'sapphire tower' bore rich blooms, as 'zebrina lifesaver' remedied; And 'sundrops primroses' were lingering, as the silken breeze hurried. 'Bee passion' blooms generated hysteria, with the fragrance of fairies; As summer saluted lovely 'queen's tears.' Some nomads never marry! Mary was feeling ill one day. It soon passed, but she was late to class. It grew later, as she looked for steady, silent Sam, in tall, green grass. Sam was nowhere about, though they always walked to school together. Soon worried Mary found the school in uproar, like redbirds of a feather! Sam was running from the teacher, in the classroom of much disarray; As the children screamed with laughter, loving the opportunity to play! Laughing herself, Mary coaxed Sam over. Glad to find her, Sam obeyed. The chuckling teacher allowed Mary to take him home, where he stayed. That day became a topic of legend and lore. A song was written about it. It soon grew old and beloved, like a starbound comet, swift as a rocket! 'Mary had a little lamb; Its fleece was white as snow; And everywhere that Mary went, The lamb was sure to go. It followed her to school one day, Which was against the rule; It made the children laugh and play To see a lamb at school.'
