Doll With Wings

Porcelain doll hangs on shadows and wings Of twilight’s frame. Guarding an autumn child, The toy lightens ink of stenciled dusk As her enamel fingers gleam like candles... Yellow the stars where she comes from robed in fine lace . Through heaven’s print An angel in disguise bestows love, as Porcelain doll hangs on shadows and wings Contest 236 Max 16 Lines

This one reminds me of my grandmother's small dolls. And as she got older, she was the 'autumn child' Love this one. Oh, and congrats on the win.
