Moments alone are harder to
find Once, just once I wish I
weren’t this confined The things they boast of in
motherhood Haven’t thrilled me the
same, haven’t been as good Every stage brings new
challenges with constant hyper Right from the start, the
breast feeding and the dirty diaper Angel at sleep but like Energizer
Bunny when she awakes No stop to the going and the
noise that she makes Darling, sweet child, mummy
loves you very much Cares that you are healthy
and happy to get your gentle touch How fast you’ve grown, so
now baby please It’s time you listen and
that mummy gets some ease Learning to walk was a
challenge, now you run all day Darling, sweet child, please
give mummy, just one moment away! |
