And here it is, The Verdict:

put a little wax on it;
it will sparkle just like new.
--but there are pieces missing

mix some sawdust with wood glue.

For how much longer?
  Birds are cooing and nesting
For how much longer?
  Feathers bristle--the onslaught
  of new northerlies--cold wind.

  Start at the top, work downwards
Which way is downwards?

Whom shall we go to?
  Stars are bright in the morning
Who do they shine for?
  To him who sits on the throne
  surrounded by em'rald light.
