"Mother Dear," by Ercole Bonjean

Mother Dear, Of my life you are the centre, You give me joy and give me shelter. How wonderful it is To greet you with a kiss Or a thoughtful caress On the palm of your hand. Last night I dreamt of you And in the dream I hugged you; Then my sorrow fled me As your hand caressed me; My face is now bright, As I am woken by your smile. I now look at life in awe As I step through the door! Ercole Bonjean Translation by Chiara Amoretti Saves and prints Link correlati a questo post: Elementary school
