Birth

BIRTH Once upon a moonlit night There came a ray of magic light That shone upon an orphan home Where two small pumpkins left alone To thirst and starve to fret and cry Would spoil at last and surely die But struck at last by magic’s beam There came a most fantastic scheme When a dad and son with paring knife Cut mouth and eyes to give them life Their eyes were dark with lifeless stare Their mouths with fangs beyond compare Blind and sad the pair and so Old dad invented candle glow No longer were they sad forlorn Jack o lantern fright was born Dave Austin
