Mother's Day Poem

 When you thought I wasn’t looking
          When you thought I wasn’t looking,
          I saw you making my favorite meal,
          And I wanted to learn how to cook.

          When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I saw you turn off my light at night while I was asleep,
And I wanted to start turning off my light before I go to sleep.

          When you thought I wasn’t looking,
            I saw you hang out the washing,
           And I thought I could do that too.

         When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I saw you waking up every few hours because of baby,
               And I wished I could help.

        When you thought I wasn’t looking,
          I felt you give me a kiss at night,
            And I felt touched and loved.

       When you thought I wasn’t looking,
                 I heard you get angry,
    And I knew that everyone gets angry,
                      And it’s okay.

     When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I could see you making sure that we’re safe
   And you made me feel even more safe.

     When you thought I wasn’t looking,
                     I was looking…
    Thank you for everything you do,
     You make me feel safe and loved.
