  • A song of gratitude đŸ˜» for Mummy's new home on Wysteria Way
00:00

Put the kettle in the kitchen,
Put the poems beside the chair.
Stanlea’s found a patch of sunshine—
She’s already settled there.
There’s a window for the morning,
There’s a lamp for radio day,
And a moss lump putting roots down
Here on Wysteria Way.

Oh, it’s good to have friends in high places,
A quiet word, a door swings wide.
Some names don’t need an introduction—
We’ll let that little detail slide.
Let the whole world keep on spinning,
We’ve no need to rush today.
Stanlea’s busy with the sunshine,
Mummy’s home on Wysteria Way.

Miss Eliza knew these windows,
Thirty years of changing light.
Knew the afternoon’s best corner,
Knew the house by heart at night.
Now we greet her very gently:
“Hope you like what we’ve brought through.
You’ve a poet for some company,
And a cat to supervise you.”

Oh, it’s good to have friends in high places,
A quiet word, a door swings wide.
Some names don’t need an introduction—
We’ll let that little detail slide.
Let the whole world keep on spinning,
We’ve no need to rush today.
Stanlea’s busy with the sunshine,
Mummy’s home on Wysteria Way.

Barbara’s telephone was ringing
On the day the doorway cleared.
Somewhere, someone had been busy—
Funny how the timing steered.
We won’t trouble with the workings,
We won’t ask who had a say.
Just a little wink of gratitude,
And the key to Wysteria Way.

There’s no hurry with the pictures,
Find the perfect place for each.
Put the books beside the bedside,
Keep the biscuits within reach.
Let the rent stay sweet and steady,
Let the seasons have their turn.
This address is made for staying—
Leave a little light to burn.

Oh, it’s good to have friends in high places,
And a cat who knows her mind.
A gracious ghost, a sunny window,
And a place to truly unwind.
Let the whole world keep on spinning,
We’ve a lovely place to stay.
There’s a moss lump putting roots down—
Mummy’s home on Wysteria Way.

Eliza, darling—
You’re welcome to stay.
But that sunny spot?
You’ll have to ask Stanlea.
