tattered dollA Poem by dana much loved doll is repaired and asked not to ever misbehave again...OK, I'm whining now!
a tattered doll figure,
lifted from closeted lair…
button eyes missing.
no hope to revive (or re-stitch),
ever torn and seeking previous spells;
grasped by warm child’s hands
to make repairs and love intact,
to show it where to go.
stitches tied in patterns, condensing tired
wounds into a joyous fixing up of strands;
eyes are re-installed to look back into
the reasons they are meant to view
their previous blissful thought;
to see beauty in its reflection.
and not to see the pain.
