Yellow school buses –a parent’s dream
Summer’s ended the children scream
Get on the bus-don’t be late
They find a way to hesitate

While mom makes lunches to-go

Yellow school buses-slow me down
Shopping all-day up-turns a frown
Soon the children will be home today
Their bus stops at the corner in my way

While mom ponders~ ”What’s for supper?”

Yellow school buses- they’re just a dream
School supplies and paper, by the ream
They’re all just thoughts of years gone by
Kids all grown up; mom lets out a sigh

While mom adds pages to her scrapbook

Yellow school busses –they line the street
Six in a row makes it so neat
She sits and looks out the window where,
Children are running, but hers aren’t there

While mom sips her tea and weeps

So this little tale is for parents everywhere
Love and cherish your kids; those moments you share
Quickly enough the children are grown
You are needed much less, as they’re on their own

While memories of mom, are passed on through the years
