A Lid for Every Pot!
My mother always told me, “There’s a lid for every pot”.
I always wondered what she meant, I thought of it a lot.
I have many pots of unusual shapes and different volumes too.
With a lot of different sized lids that fit quite a few.
Was she telling me, that only one lid must fit just right?
That the lid must fit perfectly, not to loose or too tight?
I think what she was saying was if I’d look hard, I would see.
That there’s a special someone out there, someone just for me.
Mother had so many sayings that I didn’t comprehend back then.
But as I grew older, I heard those sayings, over and over again.
There was a very special someone out there that fit me perfectly.
It was thanks to Mother, who always had sayings that encouraged me.

It's great how the words of our Mums come back to us, even fifty years later. There surely is something in your Mum's words. Cheers! Liz

Well, I will ask Bonnie, in your tale above, who is the pot and who is the lid? and don't give me one of those 8th of March Day woman lib wishes, although you will be making a lovely pot, if I may say so.
