Oh! Mother I see!
Oh! Mutter Aye Sea!
Oh! Mitter Eye C!
Mother–new and fresh.
I–for the self now lost.
See–for the knowledge gained.
Mutter–for the rumors around.
Aye–for the consent lost.
Sea–vast and uncrossable.
Mitter–a baby’s word for bitter.
Eye–always calculating the age between.
C–the highest grade you can now achieve.
Oh, for the mother I see,
A child within and out.
Dirty adult's plaything and toy,
A nesting doll without doubt.
A child within a child,
A toy for those around.
Break down the words,
Put them together again.
Maturity is left.
Mercy is taken.
Maternity is obtained
When a child carries their own.
