MOTHER'S GLASSES

By Edgar Albert Guest

I've told about the times that Ma can n't find her pocketbook,

And how we have to hustle round for it to help her look,

But there's another care we know that often comes our way,

I guess it happens easily a dozen times a day.

It starts when first the postman through the door a letter passes,

And Ma says: “Goodness gracious me! Wherever are my glasses?”
