Poem

The little girl’s mom Tila, 
worked hard to save enough money
It was her baby girl’s birthday, 
how she loved her miel, her honey
She saw a Barbie doll that stood 
in the window at Catarina’s Boutique
Wearing a traditional dress embroidered, 
flowered details so unique
Sugar skulls glisten 
a crown of marigolds adorn her hair
A Mexicana Barbie with long dark braids 
nothing would compare 
Complemented by a golden yellow flowery headband
The dolls face and body 
a beautiful color of ochre, tanned
Spotted by the little girl 
on their walk through the city
Calling out, que bonita!  
Mamita she is really pretty                                                          
Maria Barbie printed on the box, 
like hers, it was the same 
She knew she had to have her, 
when learned she shared her name                      
Tila rushed home to put the order in on the phone
The line went dead, there was a muted tone
She prayed the order went through that day
And hoped it would be received
on her daughter’s birthday
Because of the power outage in Pueblo, 
a small town
The Barbie doll was gone, 
lost and could not be found
Tila was sad when she told her miel 
it was the last one of her kind
Don’t cry mamita, I already prayed another
little girl Barbie Maria will find
