Mam and Dad



Mum you meant the world to me
Dad you were the best the world could see
You were there for me in my younger days
You helped me through my teenage way
You taught me how to read an write
and Tucked me up in bed at night
Looking back over those happy years
At all the joy. Laughter and tears
It makes me think how great it’s been
To have had THE BEST MUM &DAD
The world has seen
To end this verse I’d just like to say
I will live you forever and a day
