the Purple Cow

Grandma Hunsaker taught elementary school for years.
Through the years it was common to see the following poem along with a picture (I improvised) on one of her bulletin boards.



THE PURPLE COW

by: Gelett Burgess (1866-1951)

NEVER saw a Purple Cow,
I never hope to see one;
But I can tell you, anyhow,
I'd rather see than be one.
