I have chauffeured my children

From the cradle to the nave,

From here to maternity.

I have left no avenue unexplored

Within a twenty-five mile radius

Of my own front doorstep.

I have lurked, engine revving,

Outside smash-and-grab-a-jelly parties,

Poised for a swift getaway.

I have kerb-crawled, petrified

Of being mistaken for a pervert,

Past Scout huts and ballet classes.

I have boldly burst into rave venues

Where wrinklies are unwelcome

And gratitude rationed.

I have seen in my rear view mirror

Back-seat passion that would send

Madonna screaming home to her Mom.

Now, for the very first time,

I am under orders to ferry home

Our diarrhoetic grandspawn.
