Family Love

When they sink the moon in a pool of water,
A father appears.
The baby's cries are like the wolf's howl,
The mother shouts, "I love you".
But when the moon appears, your parents disappear,
But you still hear "I love you" echoing around.
When the moon sinks once more,
The baby thinks, I love you Dad, Mum.
