I kept asking my mom today,
Curiosity couldn't be hidden:
''Give the secret to me away
Of the power by which you're driven".

You can cure all the aching spots
With a kiss and a cheerful laughter;
Lullabies having your sweet voice
Calm me down, when it gets darker.

In the world of my barbie dolls
You're sure a top-notch designer.
And the crime of a lost pair of socks,
Solved by no-one but you, my darling.

She just said that one day I too
Will be given this super-power,
When find out that now we're two,
There is no lonely desert flower.

I love the last stanza, how the mother replied sweetly without making her daughter confused. Felt the Mother-Daughter bond... nice piece! 😊

I swear this more than the rest. As a child I tended to loose one or more ensemble of my school uniform, but magically mum always finds it... Even now, the magic still lives, I hope I gain such powers for when my children gets here😢

Thanks for stopping by ) of course you will gain such powers, proven by millions of girls including myself ) the magic even spreads further - I manage to find all the lost stuff of my husband too, maybe that's a gift of the one who cleans, ahaha )
