Mother¡¯s Mother¡¯s Day
For Mary Ahn
Hazel went to visit her mother.
It was a special day,
And she was taking her
A beautiful bouquet of violets.
But Mother wasn¡¯t home! Tsk!
Mother had
gone to visit
her mother.
Because it was
such a special day,
she was taking her
a big, plump acorn.
But Grandmother wasn¡¯t home! Tsk! Tsk!
Grandmother had gone to
Visit her special day.
Because it was such a very special day,
She was taking her a ripe, wild
Strawberry.
But Great-Grandmother wasn¡¯t home!
Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!
Great-Grandmother had gone to
Visit her mother.
Because it was such a very,
Very special day,
She was taking her some
Kernels of popcorn.
But Great-Great-Grandmother wasn¡¯t home!
Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!

Very special day,
She was taking her some soft
feathers for her bed.
