Always made soup
And made me eat a lot
Bought me chocolate
And never told my mom
Told me stories
And taught me how to speak
Properly in Russian
Who made sure I always looked neat
And scrubbed my skin off in the bath
Who helped me trace my letters
So I can write nicely
Who showed me how to buy
The best fruits in Brighton
And fed the ducks with me
And gave me nicknames
And hugged me very tightly
So I can always know
I’m loved
