Safety First

The lighted match you throw away May start a fire no hand can stay.

Mary had a camp fire bright, But failed to put it out, And soon the western wind came by To scatter it about; Now in that place no flowers or birds

Salute the summer breeze, And death and desolation reign Where once were living trees.

Tommy struck a Lucifer

To light a cigarette, Then threw the burning thing Which later brought regret; For soon a fire sprang up and Throughout the livelong day, And left a cruel, ugly scar Upon the King's Highway.
