Love

Tablecloths and tea towels

Iced cakes in paper cups

Topped off with sprinkles

And served with love

Lamingtons and cheesecakes

Quiches and roast

Peas fresh from the garden

Vege soup and toast

Lunch round the table

Roaring fire radio on

Doing dishes at the sink

Singing along to a song

Hugs for goodbye and hello

Framed photos everywhere

Memories and moments

She's captured to share

Gumboots and haybales

Chickens and eggs

Raincoats knitted jumpers

Hot water bottles in bed

Freesias and dahlias

Fresh cut inside

Delicious smells of cooking

Maybe one glass of wine

A pantry that's bursting

Fresh fruit and veges

Bottled on shelves with

Jams made from blackberries

These images in my mind

Conjure up someone

Someone who loved us

That someone is mum
