Poet and author, Paul Laurence Dunbar loved children, nature, and people. He wrote poetry, short stories, and musical plays using the natural language of people in northern and southern America. The Sparrow is a tribute to his love of birds and The Farm Child's Lullaby is a sweet goodnight poem to children during the cold winter. #Dunbar150 is a tribute to Dunbar's literary genius as his image is on a US postage stamp, a commemorative US gold coin, and a driver's license plate in the state of Ohio.Relax and enjoy Aunti Oni's sweet rendition just for you!
