"Love me when I least deserve it, because that's when I really need it" Swedish Proverbs All the while I went my way Hot hostility halt my been gay Anger defiled my melodious voice Frightened love, fled far from been mine Each dawn grew my melancholy phase Still you cared, it made me amazed Each of thy smiles slightly faded my repugnant scowl It a little, shamed by burning anger My heart pictured if thy world was true I began to believe for I was always at rest with you Many a time I would have gone back But amidst my distressing scowl, Mama smiled like my scowl was a charming smile Felicitations of envy I'd give to men But you were ever gentle and patient An insolent child is not thrown away, I'd Hear her say Just before hate could ruined me You gave me reason to believe love is true Slow ridding years mended my heart Your incessant warmth refined me Your warm embrace taught me the Way of love; comforting, reassuring Ever patient and forgiving You showed me the beauty of love Now the world is a mirror When I smile they smile bright too You are the constant sky in my life I love you mama For the contest “The Right Time” written by Ingibo Benson Fourth July 2011
