Precious Sunshine

Handmade with a mother's love, they beguile Two blue booties hanging on a washing line Two blue booties that bring a curling smile Belonging to a cherub, lay down subline. Gazing the moon, cooing comes back soon Come back Mommy dear with your heart yearning Don't leave me; I want to smell, your perfume Swaddled me in your arms and cocoon me Come back Mommy dear, with your heart yearning I was bound to your womb, but now hold me I want to hear your heart sing to me, croon Mommy dear, you're my precious sunshine Mommy, you have a certain kind of brightness Mommy, dear—we are of the same bloodline My love will always have colour-blindness I will always cherish my handmade clothes I will always cherish my chromosomes, Because Mommy they came straight from you.
