TO MY SON by MINA SHAFER

First Line: YOU PLAY ON THE STRINGS OF MY HEART
Last Line: JUST SINGS AND SINGS.
Subject(s): SONS;

You play on the strings of my heart;
Your mood is my mood;
All minor chords I catch,
All joyous ones I match.
If yours are light
And gay,
That day
For me is right;
And makes for me a song,
That all day long,
Just sings and sings.
