The arrival of the Rag doll

"

New Stock

The shop door opens delivery arrives
manager pleased as his business thrives
new toys are opened all of the brands
except one little wooden box 
that looks like closed hands

bewildered and intrigued the manager reads
“little girl Casey with additional beads”
this one little rag doll no others in sight
no check list or price something’s not right

put in the office away from buyers eyes
a little girl wonders in anticipating new supplies
the manager greets her in a softening tone
“take a look around, are you here alone?”

With that the mother enters to answer his question
“No she’s with me anything new for suggestion?”
this business woman does surely excite
Show only the most expensive
The manager will be the bait and she will bite 

A door slams behind the man his neck he does tilt
he’s sure he locked that door then his feelings do wilt

The little girl shrieks with new Casey in hand
“It just walked to me mommy”
Mother ignores the statement not willing to understand

“How much for this?” the mother does query
Manger in a predicament and acting so weary
“for that new line I haven’t a clue
The prices and the stock list I have yet to pursue”

The mother seems tested and he’s keen for the sell
“give me 50 bucks what the hell”

The mistake has been made this rag doll has a home
And they never queried how it got out alone

To be honest I am truly surprised by the creativity and wonderful rhyme of this piece. The story was perfectly told, completely refreshing and unlike many things I have read. This poem had this curious feel to it, which is hard to explain. It was suspenseful, almost thrilling to read with the unknown doll. But this also felt pleasant and friendly, as if I had nothing to fear. I love how the doll picked the girl. At first I thought of "Chucky", the killer redhead doll, but you ended this sweetly...I hope.:)

Only a child would have queried how it got out the room alone, now us adults well we depend on our logic too much to ever believe in supernatural things so we are blind to such things. Building a nice story poem here. Great writing!
