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 -
