Dolly

by RodG


Amy Peabody, in red beret and matching mittens, marched right up to Dr. Adams sitting in a chair by his desk.

“Dolly is very sick.”  Frowning, she thrust her red-haired doll at him.

The doctor smiled at Amy.  “What ailment could this fine doll possibly have?

“She don’t say ‘Mama’ no more.”

Dr. Adams probed Dolly’s chest with his stethoscope.

“Hmmm,” he said.  “She has a bad case of hug-a-me.  You take her home, hug her close all day and talk to her!”

Amy pouted.  “You sure that’ll work?”

“Only If you smile.  Smiles are the cure.”

Amy left smiling.
