POEM TEXT:

I had a dream last night. I dreamed

 I had to pick a Mother out

 I had to choose a father too.

At first, I wondered what to do,

There were so many there, it seemed,

Short and tall and thin and stout.

But just before I sprang awake,

I knew what parents I would take.

And this surprised and made me glad:

They were the ones I always had!
