Giving Up Gardening
By 3. E. Stoakley
I regret to announce that because of ill
.health,
I'll have to quit gardening and do with
less wealth, ,
I have got so crippled I can hardly go,
When I sold produce I tried to use all
alike,
And I hardly made enough to take
even a hike,
I sold 'most of the garden land for
building lots,
And won't need so many tools and
pots.
There is a lot of walking the goods to
' deliver,
Years ago, I could do it without a
quiver.
But as years roll by and our step gets
short,
And we are glad to pull into any old
port.
I don't think gardeners are paid too
much for their goods:
The garden produces some very good
foods.
It seems natural to think the other
fellow gets the best deal,
But if he does, I'll never squeal.
I would like to see all nay customers
once more,
If I didn't get chased away from their
door.
Some keep a dog for their own pro-
tection,
But as far as I am concerned I have
no objection.
Some dogs bark are worse than their
bite,
But I would just as leave meet them
in daylight.
We fan go fishing for trout, pike and
carp,
When we get back we can eat fish
and pick on the harp.
I air fond of fishing, when the fish
bite,
And catch suckers far.into the night.
They tell us to eat plenty of fish, it
is good for the brain,
So perhaps I had better go fishing
again.
I have heard there are suckers born
every minute,
