Song my Mother Sang

     

                               

                                When babe in arms

                                My mother sang to me

                                Soft and lilting

                                Voice precious to my heart.

     

                                Long since gone

                                Beyond sight and touch

                                Grave deep, never woken by tears.

                                With wind’s whispering tones

                                Again I hear her song

                                Touching my soul with a mother’s love.
