Mummy

by Cara   Nov 10, 2008


Mummy I want to hold your hand
Lets take a stroll across this land
Together we will conquer all
Because, mummy you wont let me fall.

Lets sit up all night long together
Talk about anything, even the weather
Will you rock me to sleep tonight?
In your arms I will lay, hold me tight

Will you make me my lunch for school, mummy?
Your loving touch, sure to satisfy my tummy
Wave goodbye to me as you leave me for the day
Off I run, to the sandpit, its time for me to play

I will never have a chance to ask you these things
Because you went to heaven mummy, do you have wings?
Thats just another thing that I cant ask you
I wish you could see me now mummy, I grew

I am now a teenager, going through life
I am doing pretty good, not getting in strife
But I miss you mummy, I want to hold your hand
I think its time I joined you in your land.

I want to be with you in heaven now
Its time I left this world, but I dont know how
Wont you guide me through it, I need your help
Ill float away from this life, without even a yelp.

    Well not about personal experience ,

    if that si not a personal experiecne ad you expressed this way , i can nto imagein how a real experience would be expressed ,

    the rhyming waas exceptional in everyway ,

    mumy , the wrod used , not used mother , or mom
    but mumy this choice of word was very meanfull , and the questions were like made me cry

    great job

    This is a very sweet yet sad poem.

    I will never have a chance to ask you these things
    Because you went to heaven mummy, do you have wings?
    Thats just another thing that I cant ask you
    I wish you could see me now mummy, I grew.

    My favourite part, rather touching.

    Great work.

    Such a sad loss that unfortunately a lot of kids and young adults must experience. but i think you did very well on this piece. my only question is... i could be mistaken, but shouldn't there be a question mark after "Will you make me my lunch for school, mummy"?
