(Dedicated to all the moms and dads abandoned in a nursing home)
We wandered far
To feed your hunger
We dug deeper
To quench your thirst
You were always looking up
Towards the shiny light
As if embarrassed,
by our mud stained faces
We watched you grow
One leaf at a time
We held you together
In every storm of your life
When we get old
Do not break us off
Let us die on your lap
Under the shade of love
