I use to play this little game,
the that held a clue.
They brought a smile to my mamas face,
as she followed the directions through.
Little notes I put here and there,
things for her to find .
And when she'd find them they would tell her ,
keep looking one more time.
Some I placed on the frig door,
once one was on her bedroom floor.
I loved placing them on the mirror to,
for she was always in the bathroom.
My little notes would hold such love,
little hearts and kisses with a rainbow up above.
But the one that held the gift you see,
that note was pinned to me .
I watched my mama after the game one day,
I thought she was throwing my little notes away .
But as I watched she placed them in her dresser drawer with care,
It made me smile at the love she so shared .
One thing her little girl didn't know,
is how her mama placed them in a scrap book so
that on her graduation day,
that book of memories would be so displayed.
For on each page was a scavenger hunt,
with little notes presented one by one.
Then at the bottom so displayed,
was the little girl with a note with a smile on her face.
