A Motherly Desire

If I had a mother,

She would gift me with leather,

And be my protection,

Under the weather.

If I had a mother,

She would play with me,

From dusk to dawn,

With full glee.

If I had a mother,

She would make me fine,

When I have rising temperatures,

And treat me in time.

If I had a mother,

She would be elated,

If I won a award,

And I would get rejuvenated.

I wish I had a mother,

A lovely gift of the gods above,

And grow under her shed,

With a happy smile in the starry sky.
