Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for September 13, 2017

It saved her from a lifetime of regrets.

The day after was a tad quieter.

She is still with us in spirit, so let’s go and get the ouija board..

She had a happy day? How extraordinary!

It was about 60 years after this picture was taken.

Must be cotton Ginny!

A moral beauty of strong natural fiber,

(or was it the other way around?)

she rode the cotton pony into the sunset.

Or as Walter Sobchak would say, ‘Ef it girl, let’s go bolling.’

Was that laceylike bench snatched from a gnome garden? The Cotton Queen looks like a giant next to it.

The cotton balls are hilariously bad. A third-grader must have designed the stage.

If she’s a queen, where is her crown?

I think I saw Captain Jack Harkness, (not his real name), chasing weevils around with his Torchwood gang. Or that may have been a television show. It is so difficult to say what is real these days.

Cotton Mather, FRS was a socially and politically influential New England Puritan minister, prolific author, and pamphleteer.

Cotton diplomacy refers to the diplomatic methods employed by the Confederacy during the American Civil War to coerce the United Kingdom and France to support the Confederate war effort by implementing a cotton trade embargo against the United Kingdom and the rest of Europe.

Cotton-Eyed Joe is a traditional American country folk song popular at various times throughout the United States and Canada.

Cotton Jones is an indie folk band, with elements of psychedelic folk, dream pop, baroque pop, and Americana, based in Cumberland, Maryland.

Cottonmouth snakes have no relation to the cottonmouth experienced by people using drugs.

When them Cotton Balls get rotten,

You can pick very much cotton!

When that Cotton Queen gets rotten,

You can bury the mess but salvage the dress!
