4.4.14

My mother bought me coats
Long after I left home
Some years more than one 
Usually for Christmas
Some years more than one

Once married After marriage she bought
Us several matching pairs
But My wife often found
Her's too masculine

Mom has been dead three years 
But her little boy still wears  just wore
Her ankle length shamrock 
Green raincoat in the Spring 

Mom has been dead three years
But walking through Central Park
This April afternoon I was wearing
Her ankle length shamrock green slicker
