MARGARET H. ALDEN

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 beds,Where, like flowers with petals curled,Rest in peace two dreaming heads,That—is mother's little World!

Rest in peace two dreaming heads,

That—is mother's little World!
