Wanderings and Ponderings of Children a Mothers Memories

                  

                     I've treasured memories like purest of gold

              Which are pondered in thought as I am growing old

                           Of my little children a long time ago

                           And the questions they posed, they

                                    just wanted to know

                         Of animals, bugs, and of toads,

                                     snails or slugs

                  Of fabric and string, Oh! Can we make a rug?

                            And of funniest words that they 

                                found simply absurd
 
                          And of people and places 

                          of which little ears heard.
 
                         Who, when, where? What?! 

                                Oh, Mommy how?

                                And why? Why? 

                   Why mommy, aren't we allowed?!
           
                        
                  Of questions, this mommy had heard

                                      Every day

                     As the children discovered through

                                their world and play

                 The seashells from the wonderous sea
 
                         The world, their university

               And thus this theme which now I ponder

                As back in time my memories wander
