MORE THAN A SOFT TOY

     A baby acquires  natural habit
     to take a soft toy in bed while to sleep
      accepting that as the most favourite .
      Child develops an attachment, truly deep.

       I can't recollect a special toy
       owned by me : Nobody cared to tell,
       but my daughter and granddaughter enjoyed
       same practice: I'm telling ih detail.
      
       My daughter was fond of a woolen doll
       who secured permanent place beside her
       in the bed as if her child after all.
       When pressed button, doll to address' Mom , Dear !'

        Doll could close eyes in lying position,
        sleeping with my daughter till reaching Ten.
       Twelve year old Granddaughter holds obsession 
       for a monkey-toy which till entertains.

      She named it Gloria: On Face Time meet
      She  holds Gloria in her arms always
     Addressing ‘Good Morning’ , both I’m to greet.    
      She starts talking kissing Gloria, each day.
