 Penniluck's legacy

Solid Gold


To my baby Tammy who will be 39 on th 16/8/11. You are still my baby and always will be. Have a wonderful day and remember I love you and always will  Mum xxx

A sister - five brothers - then you came
A bottle of gin went down the drain
Add to that the birthing pill
Blasted thing just made me ill.

Well I said to my flat tum
I`ll be glad to be your mum
Do not care what others do
Whatever happens - I`ll love you.

Then with daddy by my side
Ever such a bumpy ride
You were born my bonnie bairn
Held you tight in my right airm.

Felt such love from me to you
Curly hair and eyes so blue
Skin transparent porcelain
Making me forget the pain.

Then I taught you all I knew
Like Topsy you just grew and grew
Then three babies of your own
Now they`re nearly fully grown.

I am so proud of who you are
And I knew you would go far
You my darling - meant to be
Baby to your dad and me.

Life`s been tough and sometimes bad
But I am so very glad
You were born that August day
Angel girl in every way.

Now my baby - thirty-nine
All grown up and doing fine
Love you darling - never doubt
You are special - hear me shout.

You have a heart of solid gold
Which tends to me as I grow old
Be pleased God made you as you are
The brightest, shining, twinkling star.

As you read this shed no tear
Just you have a lovely year.
