Toy mender...

...please,fix this doll for me
what once was a collectible
now lay dead on the floor
...cast aside wastefully
new, no more!
cover-up those chips of hostility
re-paint the charm and grace
mend its tattered, blue-crepe dress
cleanse the dirt from its saddened face
put that smile back upon her lips
and splash a twinkle in her eyes
then, give her back to me restored
so I can be revived!
