A little girl who was asked where her home was replied: "Where mother is."
***
I saw the sign, I saw the sign.
***
I saw a little girl
one day
She stood against a wall near the bakery
She was alone
and so
I asked her,
"Is your mum around?"
"No," she replied
I wanted to know
if she had anywhere to go, a home
And she told me
Home was where her mother was
[taxis are heard honking] [people are crossing the street]
I looked at her
"Where is she?"
This little girl smiled, flicking her brown hair off her shoulder
She kept her mum in her heart.
***
City lights are dazzling at this time.
