Grandmother’s Toy Box
Virginia Carraway Stark

Mystical
Magical toy box
With unlimited
Possibility
Every time a new discovery
Little red riding hood
Flip her
She turns into a wolf
Puppets
And dolls
In handmade dresses and coats
Storybook treasures
Of pirates and ghosts
Lego pieces
Eclectic in their random glory
In a wooden box
With oiled hinges
Out comes backgammon
And marbles
And bits of ribbon
In
Grandmother’s toy box
