Just Mum
Small, permed, opinionated,at the sink pinny on,
spuds appealing
roast for Bill.
Nets all set to twitch
hanging neatly
tidy house,
but don't open the cupboards!
Fingertip talent,
reels and spools,
rhythmic treadle,
concentration unfolds.
creativity, imagination.
A button tin
and newspaper patterns,
pins, hemming,
needles, thimble and thread.
Efficiency,
hard worker, on the go
houseproud and home maker,
iced buns on Friday.
Treats and coffee and cake,
shopping, easiness between us,
uncontrollable laughter,
I still remember it all
through the lost days.
