Preview of " Professor Owl's Teatime"

Everytime I go to Chowan, I sing this song!

By the second or third cottonfield I get distracted by the lack of skyscrapers and billboards, from my New York upbringing. I love cotton, but do we really need that many fields of cotton, I sometimes wonder. It is beautiful, though.

Where is Eva? I woke up at three and felt across the bed for my baby, guess who was there?

OH boy! She is back at college. Maybe that was a dream that she was with me for a month. Maybe she didn't really come home at all. I miss her soooo much. I hope she is alright!

Where is Eva? She's back at Chowan, for now.

I hope that you are back and fully ready to start the new semester. We enjoyed having you home and loved every minute of it, complaints and arguments and all. Love is a many splendored thing, a song says and that means that the complaints and the crankiness is part of the great love that is in our hearts. My heart especially. I am sorry I didn't have any reason to spank you this visit. I will have to think of a reason before the next visit, or it won't be as fun. I love you and enjoy yourself.

Remember to go to the pond, every once in a while.
