Me Mammy : Family Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

 

Me Mammy has a way that makes me feel at ease  .   

Even when its hard for her she does her best to please .             

People like me Mammy deserve a big reward ,

and the name me Mammy written on an award .

 

It's great to have someone like her with me here today ,

 

She's there to listen to the things I have to say .

 

Then when we go out people stop her on the  street ,

and when she talks ,her dialogue is hard to beat .

 

Me Mammy knows lots of things about this and that ,

 

She always says there's many ways to skin a cat .

 

Me Mammy says these other things that make me laugh ,

 

Look at the dirt in your ears  - I'm not a giraffe  .

 

If you fall off that wall don't come running to me .

 

Come over here and don't move,  hurry up ,says she .

 

Then sometimes me Mammy likes to hear herself shout ,

 

If you want to stay here then you better get out .

 

God bless me Mammy cause she made me what I am .

 

Now I've grown up to be me Mammy's kind of man .
