First Line: I'm carving lilies on the cross
Last Line: I'm carving lilies on the cross.
Subject(s): Carving (arts)


I'm carving lilies on the Cross.
I clean our house and cook our meals,
And plant Swiss-chard and Irish moss;
I bathe the baby, mend our clothes.
I darn enormous gaps in heels,
And tend to little Bobby's nose.
I'm carving lilies on the Cross.
