It's actually 2 poems (possibly by the same person) here are some of the lines I remember:
1) When Mother comes each morning, she wears her oldest things, she doesn't make a russle she hasn't any rings.
When Mother comes at tea time....
When Mother comes at bedtime, her evening dress she wears, she kisses each our foreheads and helps us say our prayers....
2) Blind folk see the faeries, oh better far than we.......because our eyes are filled with things we do not wish to see
Deaf folk hear the faeries, how ever soft their song ......
They were poems in a little blue book I had as a girl - it went missing many years ago and I've been looking for the name of the poems or their author ever since.
Any help you can give me would be appreciated!!
