THE DOLLY

The dolly sat upon the shelf
in the toy makers shop all by herself,
the dolly only had one eye
so all the children passed her by.

They scoffed the dolly they weren't very kind 
then a child came in with a dolly in mind,
her mother led her around the shop
at the shelf with the dolly her mother did stop.

The child reached out and felt for the dolly
the toy maker shouted "dear child I'm so sorry,
this dolly is blind she only has one eye
Iv'e a dolly right here you might like to buy".

"No this is the one" the child said to her mother
"if I can't have her I don't want any other"
so off dolly went with the child who was kind 
and just like the dolly the child was blind.
