On Being a Mother
On Being a Mother
“When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts. A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child.”
Sophia Loren
Days at the Old Schoolyard
Days at the Old Schoolyard
Remember the days of the old schoolyard
We used to laugh a lot, oh don’t you
Remember the days of the old schoolyard
When we had imaginings and we had
All kinds of things and we laughed
And needed love… yes, I do
Oh and I remember you
Sweet 16
Sweet sixteen
Sweet sixteen
Gonna spread my wings
Sweet sixteen
It’s my chance to shine
Sweet sixteen
Discovering
Sweet sixteen
So much more to life
Sweet sixteen
Love Sonnet
My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite.
(Romeo and Juliet, 2.2.139-41)
What a Baby Costs
What a Baby Costs
For babies people have to pay
A heavy price from day to day –
There is no way to get one cheap
Why, sometimes when they’re fast asleep
You have to get up in the night
And go and see that they’re alright.
But what they cost in constant care
And worry, does not half compare
With what they bring of joy and bliss –
You’d pay much more for just a kiss.
Edgar Guest (1881-1959)
