Mimosa Memories

When still the little girl I used to be
We didn't play the games kids have today
Imaginary worlds I used to see
My little feet would carry me away

I played a game made out of morning glories
And all it took was just a magic spell
I'd turn them upside down and make up stories
Of ball-gown dresses for a southern belle

In summertime, the trees played games with us
Magnolias were a place for hide-and-seek
Mimosas gave us rouge-pink powder puffs
Red dogwood berries filled our mud-pie treats

What happened to those games I loved to play ?
They must have been a piece of yesterday -
