She Was a Giant Terrific Mom

Was a giant terrific Mom
Had talents and habits galore
A natural mom to her core

The head of the family kingdom
Who took wise care of those she bore
Best of those who had gone before

Did not waste any time, my Mom
A simple soul, who knew life’s score
So many came to her front door

Did not believe in atom bomb
She wanted no one killed or sore
A peacemaker forevermore

Was a giant terrific Mom
The head of the family kingdom
Did not waste any time, my Mom
Did not believe in atom bomb
Peacemaker forevermore
