MAMA & WE SAUNTERED By Helen Constantine

Mama

WORDS AND MUSIC
By
HELEN CONSTANTINE

Mama, how I wish, I had said
Mama, the words I hid, instead

Mama, I’m sure you understood
Much more, than I thought you often could

Mama, it’s too soon to say, goodbye
Mama, my heart and I still cry

WE SAUNTERED

 Words Written
By
Helen Constantine

Languidly we sauntered
By the feral leafy banks  
Of the gently flowing stream
Densely sheltered by 
Trailing willow trees 

There we sat and lazed
On earth verdant bed
Without concern or dread
In our hearts, or head
