Paulette her favorite doll
beams with radiance after creative restoration...
Such was gift from the father she longed to embrace
and the only possession she clung to from brokenness.
Before leaving the orphanage
she handed Paulette
to the social worker---
“Please give her to a girl
who needs someone to hug.
She will be alright…
I thank God* for my new family.”
Paulette would like to cry…
she was the very lone witness
of what Paula’s biological Mom assured her:
“I’ll soon visit … and then bring you
and your doll with me to our home.”
*Romans 7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord…
