Notes About The Poem

Barbie Doll

~Barbie Doll~
(Free Verse or Narrative poem)


She’s beautiful and she’s blonde
And she can be anything I want
Of her little girls are very fond
Of, and I collect them all and so my aunt

I play with them and collect them all,
I love my Barbie dolls since I’m very small,
I can’t resist their charm when they seem to call
And when I spot them in the store I just want them all

Yes, that’s Barbie, she’s so cool, and she’s so popular
I just love her to pieces, don’t you?
And she can be anything she wants
Barbie may be just a doll to you, but not to me

Barbie can dance and she can play too,
Barbie goes to school and has a family,
She’s a pretty gal and she can never grow old 
Barbie is a special doll, and she shines like gold

She’s beautiful and she’s blonde,
She can be anything I want her to be,
Sometimes she’s blonde and sometimes she’s not
She has cars, she has houses, she has pets and she likes tea

She’s beautiful and she’s blonde
She can be anything I want 
And of her all little girls are very fond
Of, and I collect them all and so my aunt

Barbie is so cool and Barbie is a star
I love my Barbie dolls since I’m very small
She can be anything I want 
And when I spot them in the store I just want them all.
