Russian Sonia I, born in Weimar of a mother who was French and German father Ah, most learned professor, orphaned at 14 years, became a dancer known as Russian Sonia, all up and down the boulevards of Paris mistress, but times of sundry dukes and counts and later, of poor artists and of poets. At 40 years passe, I sought New York and met old Patrick Hummer on the boat. Red faced and tail, though, turned his 60th year, returning after having sold a shipload of cattle in the German city Hamburg. He brought me to Spoon River and we lived here for 20 years. They thought that we were married. This oak tree near me is the favorite haunt of Blue Jays chattering, chattering all the day And why not? For my very dust is laughing for thinking of the humorous thing called Life.
