Happy On a Stick

Happiness on a stick Bought at the Iowa State Fair for eight dollars. All of her money. But well worth it. Eight dollars for happiness. Ridiculous! Scoffed her Daddy. A total waste of your money, her mother told her. No one cares about junk like that. But she did. A bargain, her grandmother told her. Only eight dollars? Let’s go. She took her back to the fair, And they both bought another one. Best day ever.
