Wind-Up Doll

Here I am 
    a wind-up doll
  Now almost run down

  Wondering why
    I was so wound up
  Something in the world
                 ~ I'd found

Love how you associated the wind up doll with being run down and it is from her worldly experiences that are taking its tow on people. Clever my friend as always...

Now, Shirley. I humbly ask you to stop writing such things about my poet friend, Shirley Hawkins. Please! Pretty Please! With a cherry on top! ~ In Friendship and Appreciation, Gershon
