[Illustration: YEARNING LOVE]

Light blue eyes:
Flaxen hair;
Rosy cheeks—
Dimples there!
These are Baby's.

Pudgy fists;
Ruddy toes;
Kissy lips—
Mother knows!
These are Baby's.

Cooing voice;
Winning smiles;
Pleading arms—
Wanton wiles!
These are Baby's.

Yearning love;
Growing fears;
Grief and worry—
All the years.
These are Mother's.
