When My Mother Was Away

When my mother was away She left me without saying goodbye She left me to great beyond In this lonely wicked world How would I survive The demand of mother earth that asked of much from none Oh! Mother, my dream of better tomorrow My care not in worry For always she is there To meet the demand of mother nature Not to worry her word of consolation always Her remark for the demand of mother earth. I lost my mood, my care and my future I lost all a sweet mother could offer her child My mother left memory of yesterday for my future Oh! Mother, a paradise lost never to regain.
