From Her Eyes

looking down at the mess,

seeing various objects strewn across the room

for I am a cleaner and my shift never ends

looking after 2 things at once one a raging boiling pot another an angered spirit

cutting up strawberries for them just to be spit out

the money being thrown to the floor

I am a nanny who makes no pay

if only she knew how lucky she was to have me

looking up at mummy,

showing her my stuffies having a tea party

she shakes her head and puts them away

I wish she would play with me

my mummy was making me oatmeal and strawberries

but was still upset she wouldn't play

mummy gave me strawberries

the dog likes to play with me so i threw them down

before he could get them she threw them away

why wont mummy play with me

how unlucky to have a mummy who cant see me
