When I spill some food on my nice clean dress

Or maybe forget to tie my shoes,

Please be patient and perhaps reminisce

About the many hours I spent with you,

When I taught you how to eat with care,

Plus tying laces and your numbers too,

Dressing yourself and combing your hair.

Those were precious hours spent with you,

So when I forget what I was about to say,

Just give me a minute.....or maybe two,

It probably wasn't important anyway,

And I would much rather listen just to you.

If I tell the story one more time,

And you know the ending through and through,

Please remember your first nursery rhyme

When I rehearsed it a hundred times with you.

When my legs are tired and it's hard to stand,

Or walk the steady path that I would like to do,

Please take me carefully by the hand,

And guide me now as I often did for you.
