The Visit. Let me take your photograph I'll put it in a frame. I'll stand it on my mantelpiece to remind me when you came. It's not often that you visit or even stay for tea but I would like to thank you for spending it with me. You always seem so busy and don't take time to play. I know it's something special you took time out for me today. You came to say "Hello mum" you even brought a cake. I made some tea for you and me as you realised your mistake. You said that you were sorry for leaving things too long a time. You promised that you'd visit more, my precious and lovely daughter. Forever in this heart of mine.
