Inscription

After all the spuds are gone
When the last small dish is done
When there's nothing left but fun
Think of me

When the last drumsticks devoured
When each pan and kettles scoured
When the dog's with bones are showered
Think of me

When the gravy bowl is licked
When the table's spicked and spanned
When an easy chair is picked
Think of me

When there's nothing more to do
While you rest a bit, will you think of me
Just before you start the chores
In the crisp and cold outdoors
When the fire with comfort roars
Think of me

When there's no more wood to bring
All the rooms with voices ring
When you gather round and sing
Think of me

When the sun slips from the skies
When the sparrow nestward flies
Just before you close your eyes
Think of me
