My Child
by Mary B

I followed your happy laugher

To where you were today

You didn't hear me coming,

You were  so busy at play

I had just cleaned the room

A short time before

There I saw a gay profusion

Of toys on the floor

Clean up this mess,

I started to say

We must quickly put

Everything away

But your smile and

Dancing eyes

Unlocked memory's door

For a moment I was you,

Playing On my mother's floor

You didn't see a mess,

Just your own special treasures

I will not be the one to

Take away this moment's pleasures

All too soon this time

We share will be gone

Today we'll make another memory

To build your Life on

So play , my child, and dream

Of marvelous,  mysterious things

Take a trip to the moon,

Chase the wind, jump  over a tree

And when all your grand

Adventures are through

Come running back to me,

For I love you
