Mother



You are the one who made me talk
You are the one who made me walk
You are the one who makes tasty dishes
You are the one who fulfills my wishes
You are the one who taught me wrong and right
You are the one who made my future bright
You are the one who made me write
You are the one who cares all night
But all I can say to you o' mother
You are the one whom I wonder. . . .
