Anaya, toys can be quite the thing. I remember always wanting toys when I was young. Now, we supply them to others. Of course, the attic could be our brain....these short poems leave a lot of room for interpretation. I'm loving it and sending you smiles.

Congratulations on your win. I enjoyed reading your creative "TOY" write. Few words with much said. The attic can be a great place for old toys. What a doll picture you have here. Have a Blessed Day with your Win.......

A well-crafted acrostic poem, dear Anaya. You explored themes of nostalgia, passage of time, and juxtaposition of simplicity with complexity. The "toys in the attic" represent childhood innocence and the trivial aspects of life that may seem insignificant but hold deeper meanings over time. Best wishes for the contest.

I love the anology best, SP. The static that over rides the natural process of thought , makes collective symphonies over time, of conjestion, yet lively are the childhood memories~ ty

This one has a greater sense of lunacy charm, and an illusion of a shrunken human doll. And all can guess who she is. :)
