Evelyn Judy Buehler Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Little Wee Mum

She is rarest of them all - 
Me little wee mum, only four feet tall! 
Strong but kind, firm yet fair; 
Roses for her pretty hair! 

Mum, she is very soft spoken; 
Yet her rules are never broken. 
I, the youngest of ten children 
Am no stranger to her discipline. 

None of we children is Mum taller than - 
For Father's a very tall man! 
When we're out together on holidays, 
She often gets a dubious gaze. 

Her smile is like the sunrise - 
To light our morning skies! 
Her laughter tinkles like a tiny bell. 
Our cottage garden has such fragrant smell. 

Mum is very dear to me; 
Loveliest face ever I did see. 
There lies her portrait upon the wall - 
Me little wee mum, only four feet tall!

Caren Krutsinger October 21, 2019 at 1:14 AM She sounds lovely! The entire poem has me feeling the love of your family. Evelyn Judy Buehler October 21, 2019 at 11:38 AM Hi, Caren. Actually, the poem is fictitious. However, as a poet, you know that there is some of us in every poem we create. As the shortest in my family at 5'2", I could be 'Little Wee Mum' myself. I wrote it as a bit of lighthearted fun. Thanks for your comment! :)
