Mum

Tip toes through the night, and mum.. you just turned out the light. My mind went into a spin, the memories of the past, you, me and the family and the love you gave And then the years past like in a blink from infant to toddler and the teenage years you always around with the words of advice You the parent who loved us all tip toes through the years The one whom calmed are fears, and then with age we became as you were once now we are all grown and age called the tune we all stand and say you made life grand Now you are looking down some will scoff but I feel it some how you are looking down saying calm down enjoy your trip, husband at your side it makes me happy to see you smile, no tears for me think of the times when love and laughter filled our lives enjoy all of you what you do Tip toes through the night I see the bright lights it’s my time to go but you are loved remember when you were a kid and think of me the same tip toes through the night love you all but must follow the bright light. Good night - Mum
