Mamma's Day



It is so exciting to sit on mamma's lap.
She is so inviting
to be there for our nap.

It is so bewitching to count on mamma's care.
She is so enriching
to be there for our fare.

It is so regaling to eat on mamma's dish.
She is so unfailing
to be there for our fish.

It is so inspiring to put on mamma's dress.
She is so untiring
to be there for our mess.

It is so refreshing to knead on mamma's chest.
She is so enmeshing
to be there for our best.

It is so consoling to love on mamma's day.
She is so cajoling
to be there for our way.
