Tea sets trimmed with prissy pink tulips
Placed on grass linens by tiny hands
Sisters hard at play in sand and water
Mold dirt like baker’s dough
Cookies, cakes, biscuits, and pies
Imaginations run wild
Soil-covered like flour from the cupboard
With no worries or cares
Only time
As if life’s clock had stopped ticking
Acorn cherries and green leaf sprinkles
Look pretty enough to eat
Hours spent until the sun’s setting
Making Mud Pies
This was one of my favorite things to do with my sister when we were children. My favorite toys were my tea sets and my baby dolls. I was born to be a mommy 🙂
