I found this today and thought of you. (If the cap fits.......)

It was stitched by a lady called Dorothy Theaker, but I don't know if she wrote it.

I found this poem on the following site. It's longer and is attributed to Emily Ann Guest.

Sigh it fits, but I know it wasn't my husband who wrote it.
