Best Doll Poems

"Hi Doll!"
He's been calling me that for years
I like it

Truth is I have always been a doll

My permanent smile
My open arms

I was a sweet sixteen's baby doll
her brother's too old to play with doll
a favourite doll
forgotten doll
replaced doll

A bounced off two cars   ...

Porcelain doll, with a face so pretty 
a country gal, ran away to the city 
Worked in a bar, dancing on tables 
beat shovelling sh-it, in Pa’s stables
Looks for love, but only finds bums
lowlife gamblers, in rundown slums

Go back home 
not a chance 
One day...

Walls of silence hold,
 Me prisoner,
The child held within,
 Cries out for release.
Relative solitude comforts, 
Not the tortured soul,
Inward coiling withdrawing,
 Deep inside. 
Shedding its outer skins,
 Protective
Layer thus preserving its,
 Inner being.
Innocents shroud lies in ruins.
Gentle spirit, cast aside wings,
 Damaged appendages.
The fallen angel...

THE DOLL

With Mona Lisa wiles, unfurled.
Her porcelain lips with tight grip.
A button dress antique and pearled.
Her glass eyed threat.

Unnerving doll — she’s quite a trip.
A poignant face, pompadour curls.
Her long stem rose replaces whip?

Alien smile out of this world —
impenetrable craftsmanship.
I broke in pieces as...

SONNET FOR THE LITTLE GIRL WITH NO DOLL

Above the brook blue Damsels flit in dance
And bring to mind that little girl who’d pass
Long solitary hours with spellbound glance
Such simple joys gave solace, filled her glass

No doll for her, the solitude to fill
But she saw silken...

Porcelain doll hangs on shadows and wings
Of twilight’s frame. Guarding an autumn child,
The toy lightens ink of stenciled dusk
As her enamel fingers gleam like candles...
Yellow the stars where she comes from
robed in  fine lace . Through heaven’s  print
An angel in disguise bestows love,...

Daughter, neglected by maternity
A button missing were her eye should be
Abused and abundant by paternity
Her limb missing were her leg should be
Expected to know the origins of charity
Love omitted from were her heart should be
Against all odds, to reach her maturity
In reality, adopted by a...

 Once upon a time
There was a little paper doll
She lived in a paper house
Made of paper walls

She had a paper mom
She had a paper dad
And a little paper basset hound
All wrinkled up and sad

This little paper doll
Went to a paper school
Full of paper students...

You scowl in anger as I turn to go,
   Your gemstone eyes so full of jealous heat;
You do not understand, and cannot know
   The thoughts that turn my head and guide my feet.
The image which you have is incomplete,

i once
had a doll
whose name
was lulu
we
laughed and
played till I was blue
her   heart as big as a   cashew
never   did she wander from my    side 
loved her to pieces
and cut off her hair
and     ...

Little sweet Lucy..four years..so small. 
Her pink teddy bear.. and her Barbie doll. 
Pushed strollers of fun. ..in traipse of malls. 
Then a Topsy turvy evil.. stifles her a thrall. 

She cries, " Where are my dolls? " 

Crawls a cruel connive...arrives a sudden sinister....

A Reliquary Musing
 
A child’s doll melded into a stone in a former Nazi Death Camp
as its chilling image haunts the collective mind of those who live 
in the so-called civilized world of today and who profess a hollow
concern for a child who’s long dead...

The little girl’s mom Tila, 
worked hard to save enough money
It was her baby girl’s birthday, 
how she loved her miel, her honey
She saw a Barbie doll that stood 
in the window at Catarina’s Boutique
Wearing a traditional dress embroidered, 
flowered details so unique
Sugar skulls glisten...
