Mother Poet

Once there was a weary traveller…

‘’I’ve told you to put your uniform in the wash!’’

Who pined for rest and comfort

The night was drawing, CRASH- ‘’ Oh, here give me that’’

The night was drawing in so fast

And there seemed no place to slumber

‘’I’ve told you a million times go to bed’’

A good night’s sleep was their only need

But fate would have other ideas…

‘’Mum, the cat got out again’’

Resigned they wandered the empty roads

Until time itself seemed to stop

And now here comes the sun, rising high

And the birds in the sky, singing bright

‘’Let’s rise and shine my little loves/ Eat your breakfast/ Mind the dog’’

Now it had begun again, no time

To stop, and so they just gave up and joined in the song
