Lets Go See Corny Boy

Let’s go to Mitchell she suggested to me.
I rolled my eyes; we had just had tea.
I know what you’re after, you’re not fooling me.
She is in love with Happy Corn, I could plainly see.

He is adorable! She told me. And always full of joy.
He is a great dancer, an all-American boy!
I could see through her plan; I knew her ploy.
She wanted to go see her crush, her corny boy toy.

We went to Mitchell and he was there of course.
Next to him was a farmer, a cart, two pails and a horse.
Why don’t you come home with me? My friend suggested.
I rolled my eyes. He is inanimate I told her again, my patience tested.

I am from Iowa, the corn state! So why is the corn palace in South Dakota?
