As we stirred and mixed and tasted, Out in the sun and dew. Why do I dream of that garden, I who am old and wise? Why am I longing, longing For one of those old mud pies? Oh, for the little pink apron. Oh, for the jacket blue, For the blessed faith of childhood When make-believe was true. —Florence A. Jones —Butts County Progress, September 26, 1913.
