A word that means the world to me
When I was just a baby long before I learned to walk.
While lying in my cradle, I would try my best to talk.
It wasnβt long before I spoke, and all the neighbors heard,
my folks were very proud of me for mother was the word.
Although Iβll never lay a claim to fame,
Iβm satisfied that I can spell this name.
