Dolly On The Shelf

Anon.

I had a little dolly,

I put her on a shelve,

I ran outside to play,

All by my little self.

Oh, I forgot my dolly,

I told my little self,

I ran back in to get her,

Off of the little shelve.

Where can my dolly be,

I know I left her here,

She used to stay where I put her,

I had nothing to fear.

Then it finally hit me,

I knew just where she'd went,

She went back to her maker,

From where she was sent.

I never really understood,

The joy she brought to me,

Until life without her,

Made me finally see.

So if you have a dolly,

Don't put her on a shelf,

Hold her and love her,

Keep her close to yourself.
