OKLAHOMA, by ELIZABETH WILLIAMS COSGROVE
First Line: Oklahoma wears a crown of diamonds in her blue-black hair
Last Line: He wears his new store-clothes with a cowboy swagger.

First Line: Oklahoma wears a crown of diamonds in her blue-black hair

Subject(s): Oklahoma
Oklahoma wears a crown of diamonds in her blue-black hair;
From underneath the purple velvet of her trailing gown
Peeps a beaded moccasin.
Oklahoma is a lusty youngster with hip-boots and jaunty sombrero;
He wears his new store-clothes with a cowboy swagger.
