It’s My Turn

Mum, remember when you,
Took me in your arms,
And melted away my pains,
With your soothing voice.

Remember when you,
Gently bathed my body,
Rubbing lotion into my skin.

Remember when I walked,
And you walked beside me,
To catch me if I stumbled.

Remember when you stayed,
Beside me and told me,
Not to be afraid.

Now mum,
It’s my turn,
Let me do,
The same for you.
