MOTHER'S WORLD by MARGARET H. ALDEN

First Line: EYES OF BLUE AND HAIR OF GOLD
Last Line: THAT IS MOTHER'S LITTLE WORLD.
Subject(s): MOTHERS;

EYES of blue and hair of gold,
Cheeks all brown with summer tan,
Lips that much of laughter hold,
That is mother's little Man.

Shining curls like chestnut brown,
Long-lashed eyes, demure and staid,
Sweetest face in all the town.
That is mother's little Maid.

Dainty room with snow-white bed,
Where, two flowers with petals curled,
Rest in peace two dreaming heads,
That is mother's little World.
