At an end

I want to pay respect to the grumpy grandfather, to the clown and his recorder, to the dandy with his gadgets. To the great mind in a youngster's body keen on scarves and hats. Then, there's the cricket man and his love for sports. Running is especially dear to us. And when I say running, I mean running when I say so. Even the patchwork cat-loving loudmouth had his moments.
Please, these are my last moments. Let me make some peace.
I'm not stalling!
Also to the umbrella and musical spoons man - I could use that now. Ah, well...
RUN!
