Paddle on the wall echoes in a colonial reminiscence
A lyric reminiscence recalls a wooden paddle hanging on the wall as a fatherly warning for a misbehaving youth. The narrator remembers a house of childhood, kitchen, stairs, and an alarm clock, while neighbors laugh at the corporal relic and a life embittered by discipline. Copyright 1910 by George Matthews Adams.
