Sting In The Tail Poem by Tony Sandy

Every cake you bake
And every meal you make. 
Every egg you break 
I'll be watching you. 

Oh can't you see 
I need a cup of tea. 
My poor throat aches
For every drink you make 
Every scone you bake 
Every chocolate cake 

Since you've been gone 
I've been lost without your food's taste 
I dream at night about your tray bakes. 
I look around but can't these replace 
My tea's so cold and I long for your food's warm embrace. 

Oh can't you see
You need to cook my tea?  
How my poor tummy aches
With every step I take.
