In Demand
From early, early morning to
night fall. I can always hear her,
my name call.
Honey can you fix this and will
you get me that and Oh! please
be careful and don't drop my
hat.
Bless her heart I know she is so
old and this I understand.
How can one person be in such
great demand.
I brush her hair and help her dress
after morning breakfast and changing
the bed linen.
We brush our teeth and then take
our medicine.
Can you put my sweater on honey
and go to the bank today, okay?
Momma needs some money and don't
take all day!
Pick up a candy bar and for the babies
too, and if you have time, I would
like to be moved.
Take me to the porch, there I will
wait for you and please honey, the
wind will be blowing;
Will you spray my hair?
Yes I do love her and in many ways
she needs me so, but sometimes
your only break can be is when your
on the go.
For her I know I must give a helping
and understanding hand,
But sometimes I wonder how can one
person be in such great demand?
