Not To Be
long haired blue eyed doll
in a shop window displayed
the child yearned for it
the mother noticed
her face showed melancholy
not enough money
the big doll stays put
she took her sad child by hand
looking back crying
at home she daydreamed
the mother baked her a cake
the girl smiled and ate
