My Turn Will Come

A battle with myself I am still on the shelf What do I do to be seen Is it my none red lips Is it I have no hips Why are they always so mean Sitting here patiently None seem to notice me I want to feel like a queen Stand tall I admonish You really are a dish You could be on the big screen My turn will come I know To be dressed and on show In my best dress of dark green With all the trimmings round I look good and astound Topped with red beads I preen Just hold me gentle please You must never me squeeze My holly leaves prick quite keen.
