This story is based on a poem from the volume of poetry written by my mother, Mrs. Laurine R. Blackson-White.
I found the poems one day as I was assisting my mom with some cleaning. I decided there was no greater tribute I could pay to her than to surprise her on MotherÕs Day with a published copy of her very own exquisite work.
One of the poems, How Did They Know? has been published as a childrenÕs book. This story, The Candy, is based on another of my MomÕs poems.
Love,
Ruth
