Mum
Mum
Where are you Mum?
Life without you is no fun!
Who will hold me tight
and tell me everything is all right?
Who will wipe my tears
and remind me there is nothing to fear?
Who will share my delights
and dance with me in the moonlight?
Who will be my friend
and listen to me and fend?
Who will rock me in her lap
for I am tired and want to nap?
Who will hold my hand
and take me to a fairyland?
Enjoy your mums while they are around
for when they go, love they give will never be found.
