“A mother's perfume” I would not know
Rather a feeling of love unbent
Still many others have told me so

A warm home and a glass of bordeaux
And the clean smell of wool worn frequent
“A mother's perfume” I would not know

A man made scent seems so faux
Stirred by machines would misreprenent
Still many others have told me so

My mothers perfume is mild espresso
Chanel or Dior could not supplement
“A mother's perfume” I would not know

The aged, soft, tweed patterned throw
Ses cheveux bouclés sont beaux
Stages well beside her western accent
Still many others have told me so

The cozy feeling when we watch our show
Is maybe what they should have meant
“A mother's perfume” I would not know
Still many others have told me so
