If I could do anything

I’d make it so you could bounce on mushrooms,

And wear a red hat and save a princess,

With your moustache on, just for fun.

*

If I could, I would make sure

You could run as fast as you wanted,

So, you could beat a blue hedgehog

Wearing white gloves.

*

If I could, I’d make you able to fly

Like a superhero in the sky,

Rescuing people

Putting villains away.

*

I can’t do that.

I’m a Mum.

I can make your favourite for dinner, though!

What will it be?
