my mother always get's me excited, she wraps her arms around me it's blissful. Then took me out for lunch, I was delighted then a lady said your smile is wistful. what a nice lady full of jolly, behind her was a man who looked with fear I told my mum to let me hide behind the trolley, as he looked at me with a falling tear and I whispered to mum I am afraid don't be scared he is just really upset. He's face was boiling like a grenade, there was a big secret remand unsaid. the man started getting so much sorrow but then I said, Hope refreshes, there will be a tomorrow.
