Four

I remember when I was four
 
Dad always with the law
 
Mum always takes the hug
 
She leaves tea always in the jug
 

Night of fight with bed bugs
 
Prayer to God to help us
 


Lovely pat to sleep by the hand
 
And a beautiful song
 
Melodious and long
 
Hard to resist the sound
 

When closed met the door
 
I always wished I’d ever be four.
