"the Birds and the Bees"
When my mom told me about the birds and the bees.
She told me everything in life I would need.
The things about a woman and a man.
Things I can't do and things that I can.
She told me about a husband and being a good wife.
About how to live so I could have a good life.
I did everything she told me to do.
Everything she said to do came true.
When mom tells you about the birds and the bees.
It's all about life for you to see.

I tried to enter Carol's contest but couldn't get my
mama out of my mind.
