Happy Birthday Mama!cropped-scan1.jpeg

You’re a gentle giant in my heart; still a star in my mind.

Sixty four years since our start, and no-one better could I find!

I’d like to go out ‘bumming’, like we did on Saturdays before.

I’d love to hear you humming that one tune uniquely yours.

You lovingly built, and feathered, and tended my first nest,

and I know even more than ever, it was a start to stand all tests!

I miss your laughter and scolding, your cheeks so soft to touch,

I knew without even asking, that you loved me more than much.

Oh why can’t you read my pages, why can’t we grow old together?

You live in my garden of ages where we learn and love forever.

Love you ‘muchy’ , Trisha
