What Did I Do?

By Gypsie-Ami Offenbacher-Ferris

What did I do?
Besides loving you
Caring for you
Nurturing you

What did I do?
In your sweet young life
To have earned such disdain
That brings me such pain

What did I do?
That keeps you away
No visits or stays
Not even on Holidays

What did I do?
That embarrassed you so
Not meeting your wife
Not part of your life

What did you do?
To the one who stands for you
Loves you beyond any other
This lady who’s your mother
