A Parents Promise
Behind the window, tucked away
our promise waits by night and day
with pine cones, oranges and a fire
a place to sleep and retire.
Although you’re out there on your own,
we’ll always be here by the phone,
with ear to listen and advice,
not too preachy but concise.
There’ll always be a home for you
to help you heal and see you through,
no matter when, no matter how,
we’ll take the burden from your brow.
When you’re hungry, we’ll be there,
to help you through what drives despair,
to greet you with a pleasant smile,
and welcome you to stay awhile.
