Promise
Mother may I?
May you what?
May I reach the stars?
May I dream anew?
May I question life and also you?
May I sleep in late?
May I drink the dew?
May I jump in puddles?
And muddy both me and you?
May I be a superhero?
May I wear a cape?
May I use you stethoscope?
May I be like you and save a life today?
Yes, my sons.
You can do all.
And if it knocks you down,
Remember I'll be there to catch you if you fall.
