What is a mother?
Mama?
	Mommy?
Special woman…. 
	Wise…. All knowing.
Mama?
	She can keep my secrets…..
( I know she won’t tell Daddy!)

Mama?
	I miss you when you’re gone.
	I dream of you at night.
	I’m scared that you’ll leave me.
Ssh, can you keep a secret?
Please don’t tell Daddy….
	
	I think we’ll die together!
	On the very same day….
In the very same moment.

Mama?
	Is that ok?
	
	Is that alright?
It’s only cause I love ya mommy….
	But don’t tell Dad….
He might get sad!

I rhymed Mommy, did you hear it!!! 
(((giggle)))

	What is a mother?

				It’s only a dream.
