I had a dream this morning
But when I was awake I couldn't remember a thing from it
Then I thought

If you forget what you dreamt
Then the dream was probably not worth remembering

If you remember things from a bad dream
Then console yourself that it was just a dream

If you had a good dream
Then try to make it true

If you didn't dream at all
Then you had your best sleep that night

Tomorrow is my birthday
I've had 29 so far
But this time the writing on the cake will be the best
It will read "Happy birthday mummy", instead of my name
The most prestigious title I hold
Baby, I love you
Thank you for being mine

Dr.
Stethoscope around the neck
Little orange spectacles sans glasses
A plastic syringe with rubber within
Tiny touches on my chest
An injection on my arm
A gentle rub
On goes the fake band aid
"You are fine now", he says
All equipments go back into the tiny plastic briefcase
It's his first mini medical play set
And I am his first patient

A little
Quack, quack, quack
Wee, wee, wee
Moo, moo, moo
Baa, baa, baa
Meow, meow, meow
Bow, bow, bow
Oink, oink, oink
Pop, pop, pop
Tick, tick, tock
A little sway, a little hop, a little jump, a little stomp, a little run
Little noises rock the house morning to night
I do a little of everything for you
I have become little again for my little one

Son, for you
I always think with my heart
Not with my brain

is a beautiful art
but
you can only fold the paper
so many times
before it rips
