THIS NJ THAT
By Hazel Underwood
MOTHER

Once my youthful world was bounded
BY circle at your feet:
Then the lines were stretched and widened
To the schoolyard and the street.
But the center of my circle
Was your tender, watchful care:
And when storms and darkness gathered
My quick footsteps led me there.
Far horizons called and claimed me-
But they kept us not apart,
For an ever open highroad
Was the pathway to your heart.
And although the circle widens
To some distant, shining star,
know your love will find me
And your hand will not be far.
Josephine Wetzler, in Chicago Herald
