TOYS

I never thought I would, compare myself to a toy, Toys should be happy, and fill your heart with joy! I am like a Ragdoll, slumped over in a chair, Waiting for someone to move me, and show me that they care. A marionette puppet, whose strings have been cut! A dead weight on the floor, who simply can't get up. A drumming bunny rabbit, whose battery has been drained, But there are no replacements, yet still I wait in vain. A scaletrix car, that has come off the track, Stuck in the gutter, there is no going back A deflated ball, that can bounce no more, No pump works. So it remains on the floor. A tower built of bricks, unstable and weak, It could fall any minute, the future is bleak! A derailed train, that is part of a set, Fragile and broken, and full of regret. A jack in a box, who has lost it's spring, Trapped inside, what does the future bring. The missing puzzle piece, then the jigsaw is complete, That piece is never found, and I am feeling beat! There are many toys and games, and I could write all day, But the outcome is the same, so there is not much more to say. So when you shake a snowglobe, and it fills with snow, Treasure every snowflake, because you never know!
