China Doll

My name is Tink
I am a very
Fragile
China
Doll
Can’t really be
Played with
Unless
I am
Invited
To
Attend
Tea parties
In the fall
At
A
Place
They
Call
The
Secret
Garden
So
I am
Protected
Safe
From
Harm
Just
In case
I
Fall
From
Grace
My
High
Chair
Throne
The
Leaves
On the
Ground
Will
Catch
My
Fragile
Delicate
Body
Leaving
Me
Unharmed
And
Little girls
Stop taking
Dolls
To
Tea
After
They
Start
Becoming
Princesses
So
I have been
Resting
On this shelf
For a very
Long
Time
All the other
Toys
Of the nursery
Woke up
And
Left
Many
Moons
Ago
Realized
Who they were
Broke free
From their
Prisons
Cages
Of
Stuffing
Metal
Wood
One
By
One
They...
