A Message On The Phone

The phone rang so loud and clear,
Hello Nanny are you there,
A little voice so loud and clear,
Made me cry several tears.

I miss you Nanny do you hear me,
When will you be coming home.
Since you have left to go away,
Things aren't the same at home.

No one sings my forgetful song,
Or races cars with me,
No one plays with Barbies,
The same as with you and Poppy.

Grammy came to visit from Nova Scotia,
She loves to snuggle with us too,
But maybe we are greedy,
When we're still lonely for you.

Maybe you've become a part,
Of our life each and everyday,
Spending at least nine waking hours,
Just loving us in every way.

We know that you too need a break,
From cars, barbies and colouring books too,
But honest Nanny we know you miss us,
And you find  time from us long too.

There isn't a day we don't think of you,
We get sad then hide a tear,
We know you are doing the same,
When you think of us you love so dear.
