Spoiled

SPOILED

They have given her all her wishes,
All  her wants catered to by the doting parents
Aided and abetted by the doting grandma
And a coterie of accomplices from the  brigade of  aunts.
No need to wait for for  xmas or birthday for that special dress,
No need to  build up the excitement of a trip to the circus,
No need to dream : 
They have spoiled her youth.
They have  in fact already stolen all her dreams.
