Who will buy my holly said the poor mother at the door. <br />It will help buy food for my family who are very poor. <br />Who will buy my holly said the poor mum in the street. <br />It will help me clothe my family and put shoes upon their feet. <br />Who will buy my holly with berries so red and bright. <br />It will help bed my children so they can sleep a peaceful night. <br />Who will buy my mistletoe with berries as white as snow. <br />It will help keep my family warm as they watch the embers glow. <br />Who will buy my ivy with leaves of varid green. It will help my <br />family enjoy Christmas, the best it's ever been.<br /><br />sylvia spencer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-mother-s-plee/
