Knitting, Till She Goes to Sleep

She said that she could have been someone. There was a nice old lady who lived around the corner in Greece. She has an amazing voice, so she goes to the church to sing, every Sunday. She said that she could have been something.

Her name was Mrs. Herring, but that wasn't her real name. Her real name was Martha Jones, but everyone just called her Mrs. Herring. She had a husband, but he died in 2004. Now all she has is her cad named ginger. She said she could have been something.

Mrs. Herring always wanted to sing in front of a huge audience, and get 27 roses thrown at her when everyone applauded. She said she could have been something.

She was blind you know…always sitting by the fire, at night with Ginger on her lap, knitting. Knitting till she goes to sleep. She said she could have been something.

She was a fast runner, and wanted to run all the way to the Olympic finish line and get a gold medal around her neck. She said she could have been something.

Martha Jones, a vey talented and caring woman,

Will always be remembered in our hearts

1913-2007

She said that she could have been something.
