"Buttons" REVISED

It was an Icy Day
And it was the Warmth
Of her smile
That made the Earth
Stand still


The woman searches
for her needle and thread
To create her doll innocently,


The replica of a child
can only be visualized,
Not by manipulating fabric to
Fulfill that inner need,

A Warm Home,
A Warm family,
A Warm loving acceptance
Wasn’t all as it seemed,


It was an Icy day
Full of cruel intentions
Her heart was really as cold
as day.
