Protected Memories : Childrens Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

At times memories I see

they're very special to me .

Like all that Mum said to do  ,

Many times she helped me through.

When I was young there she was  ,

Working night and day because  ,

she loved all her family .

With time to do things for me .

Looking back now , let me think    

Candy apples on the sink ,

Hot apple tarts on a plate ,

Summer holidays were great .

She helped me grow day by day .

She bandaged me up ok .

Wiped my nose and cleaned my ears ,

Brushed aside my childhood fears .

She fed me and clothed me  too ,

She combed my hair , shined my shoe .

I am so thankful its true  .

for all of what in me grew  .

Childhood stories she could tell

in such  innocence  as well .

Then with a smile from her face

She made my world a safe place .

Her open arms collected .

My childhood  she protected .

She wiped away all my tears .

Memories of early years .
