TAKE YOUR CHOICE: OR HERE'S GRANTLAND RICE'S METHOD by BERTON BRALEY

First Line: IN THE DIM GRAY MIST OF THE GOLDEN YEARS
Last Line: AND THEN SHE WAS PRETTY BAD.
Subject(s): GIRLS; RICE, GRANTLAND (1880-1954);
In the dim gray mist of the golden years,
By the path where the dead dream lies,
The wraith of a ghostly girl appears
With a curl down over her eyes,
A good little girl in the vanished days
With eyes that were sweet and sad,
But sometimes she walked by the primrose ways
And then she was pretty bad.
