Show HELPING MOTHER. We like to help our mother when she's working all the day. My little sister dear and I can help in many a way, ' ' For when she sweeps we help to dust the tables and the chairs, We get her everything she wants down cellar or up stairs. We carry water for the plants and pick the opened flowers, And then she puts them in a vase and calls them hers and ours; We put our toys up in their trunk when we are through with play, And say. "We've worked so very hard it's been the shortest day, And time for any other work we never could have found!" But she says, what helps her quite the most is having us around. Margaret Goss Day. |
