  Now you who’ve read this story through Will know next spring just what to do. For patience and hard work, you know, Are needed to make pumpkins grow. To raise a pumpkin pie, you need Some other things than pumpkin seed. But patience seeds take long to grow, And now’s the time of year to sow! If you begin to practice now, By spring, I think, you’ll know just how. And all you learn, I’m glad to tell, Is good for other things as well. If all you children do your best, Mother will gladly do the rest. And when Thanksgiving Day draws nigh I hope you’ll get your pumpkin pie. |
