tell me

tell me
how long out mother carried us in her belly
how hard she tried to get us out
how patience she was when we cried every night
how worried she was when we are sick
cleaned us, fed us, loved us, cared for us
held us in her arms when we're afraid
and I'm not sure what I've given her til today
oh she doesnt want anything, only my thoughtfulness
is it too hard for me to just spend some cents
to call her and ask how she is today?
i am grateful she's still in my reach
