Chicken Joy on Redbean Road by Jacqueline Briggs Martin

"Bons temps! Bons temps!" Into the yard came Miss Cleoma
and the noisy crowd of neighbors and cousins.
"Mrs. Miser," said Leo Leroy, "there's no time for axing
roosters. We are going to have a bal de maison right here."
Mrs. Miser, nothing but practical,
looked out at the crowd, put on her best apron,
and got ready to sell some seven-vegetable stew
to neighbors who'd be hungry from twirling
and two-stepping to the music of Joe Beebee.
When people danced to Joe Beebee's music
they forgot bad knees, tight shoes,
backaches, blisters, and beetles
that ate their sweet potatoes.
They forgot sickness, sadness, and sin.
