MOTHERS by ANNETTE WYNNE

First Line: MOST GOOD THINGS-ESPECIALLY CAKES AND / TOYS
Last Line: AND THAT'S THE BEST OF ALL, NO DOUBT.
Subject(s): APRIL; CHILDREN; MOTHERS; CHILDHOOD;

MOST good things—especially cakes and toys,
Don't go around among all the girls and boys,
And some must go without;
Some children have one good thing, some another—
I know a child who has no little brother,
But very fine it is that pretty nearly everybody has a mother—
And that's the best of all, no doubt.
