Hey Mom

“Hey, Mom”

Hey, Mom! 
I can’t sleep.
I’ve been awake for hours.
There are dragons at my door.
        “Come crawl in beside me,” She said 
	“I’ll chase them far away.”

Hey, Mom!
I stubbed my toe.
It hurts really bad.
       “Let me see.” She said
       “Oh my gosh. I think it needs a kiss.”

Hey, Mom!
Johnny said I’m fat.
He makes me mad.
I want to clobber him.
          “Come here a little hug will do,” She said
	  “You’re a diamond in my eye.”

Hey, Mom!
Can you take me to the park?
I want to ride a merry-go-round
And play in the sand.
       “Let's ask a friend,” She said	
       “I’ll pack a lunch.” 

Hey, Mom?
Could you tie my shoe
And button up my coat?
It’s cold outside.
	“I’ll walk you to the corner,” She said
        “And see you on the bus.”

Hey, Mom!
Can I stay up late
And watch TV with 
You and Dad?
       It’s time for bed 
       My little one
       A little kiss will have to do.

Hey, Mom!
Would you read me
A bedtime story?
	Sure, my little one
        Now, It’s time to turn out the light.
       “Sweet dreams,” She said, “Sweet Dreams.” 

That’s what Moms do.

Hey, Mom!
   “Happy Mother’s Day”
