Mum

My Mum Mum - did we say or did we agree anything? Just remind me who are you Because I don’t remember us talking Nor us going walking I remember nothing Neither life nor death But I did draw a breath It was my breath of life and it cut me like a knife Knowing what I know now, I wish I had made a growl And not left you to decide how Life is short and complicated Yours may have been hard as well The problem maybe was the nuns They could hurt all mother’s sons But let us not forget the daughters, and the Dad’s and the rest of the family nest. One day life will tell, who we are and give us back that smell When we were once all babies and our families were together DAMO
