Scope and Content

Poem, "The Little Houses" by Mary Alicia Owen. Clipping from magazine or journal. Printed. 3" x 3" The Little Houses I love the little houses On a newly-opened street Where rosy wives with a child or two Their homing husbands greet. Where toys are on the new front steps And a baby cart chokes the hall, Where velocipedes are the only cars And like birds, the children call. The little house is a house of hope And of love and faith also, There's busy hum in to all day long And the hours like moments go. The stately house has all achieved, It is dull and weary too, But the little house is aglow with dreams That may, perchance, come true.
