Syckie Sue

Lovely little Syckie Sue
A brown eyed Child
with a brown gal smile
Prancing about wildly
in her home town frock
Her inquiring mind protected
under her corn bread braids
Brave little Syckie Sue
Tumbling down Johny's hill
Stopping to wade in the lake
Extending a ritual journey
to the store
Knowing full well 
there'll be a switch waiting
back home at the door
