My Grandfather's Clock

My grandfather's clock was to large for the shelf

  • My grandfather's clock was to large for the shelf
  • So it stood ninety years on the floor
  • It was taller by half than the old man himself
  • Though it weighed not a pennyweight more
  • It was bought on the morn of the day that he was born
  • And was always his treasure and pride
  • But it stopped short never to go again when the old man died
  • Ninety years without slumbering tick tock tick tock
  • His life seconds numbering tick tock tick tock
  • It stopped short never to go again when the old man died
  • In watching its pendulum swing to and fro
  • Many hours had he spent while a boy
  • And in childhood and manhood the clock seemed to know
  • And to share both his grief and his joy
  • For it struck twenty-four when he entered the door
  • With a blooming and beautiful bride
  • But it stopped short never to go again when the old man died
  • It rang an alarm in the dead of the night
  • An alarm that for years had been dumb
  • And we know that his spirit was pluming its flight
  • That his hour of departure had come
  • Still the clock kept the time with a soft muffled chime
  • As we silently stood by his side
  • But it stopped short never to go again when the old man died
  • Ninety years without slumbering tick tock tick tock
  • His life seconds numbering tick tock tick tock
  • It stopped short never to go again when the old man died
  • It stopped short never to go again when the old man died
