The empty cooking pot
By Catherine Flanagan, Primary
the empty cooking pot is now full
as black as the pot may be
the food it makes is tasty
for sure the divine smells
that come from its contents
would surely call you to the kitchen door
it’s hard to imagine the hardship
the irish people endured
when the blight came and ruined the spud
oh how wholesome and grand they were
but now the sound spuds would but bud
Ireland and her nation got through
the famine years thank god
the spud is back again
we also have other good food now
so lets fill the empty cooking pot a
nd make divine smells that will
call them from the mountain glens
