First Line: With hosiery, gloves, and bright bouquet
Last Line: Them drop in once a month for tea.
Subject(s): Gifts & Giving; Hypocrisy; Mother's Day
With hosiery, gloves, and bright bouquet
They shower her on Mother's Day --
Then for three-hundred and sixty-four
Days, remember her no more.
Things, for her who would rather see
Them drop in once a month for tea.
