Mom

Up and at'em,
it's time for school,
brush teeth, no TV, you know the rule.

Vacuum, sweep,
dishes washed and dry
the hours are short, the day flies by.

Hang up your coat
homework and snack
Show me everything in your pack.

Help with math
read books and reports
practice your music and practice your sport.

What for dinner?
Hot dogs are fine
we all come together a family to dine.

Read me a book
cuddle close in a chair
Mommy why is there gray in your hair?

Hush now,
lay down to sleep
I watch over you, my baby to keep.

    I like it, though it makes me a little wistful.
