Great job again on writing about something that was very close to you. Sometimes those are the easiest to write about. The fact that you had a picture of her to go along with the poem was great.
Once again I might have changed a word, taken out or added a word for a little bit better line flow in places, but that is just me. Great job.

Comment from rockmann
Very nice. Everyone has something from their past that is special to them (mine, don't laugh, was a yo-yo) and when it goes away or is lost, it feels like the world is crumbling.
The ending was wonderfully written. Criss 2 has so much meaning to you.

Yes, Ebay. I have both found and sold items from my childhood. This is a great little entry for this object writing prompt. Best of luck to you and Crissy in the votes.
God bless

I absolutely adore this poem! I too had a doll I loved as a child. Her name was Baby Giggles. I will never forget the joy of opening her on Christmas morning. Thank you for bringing back those memories for me. Love your poem! So well written!

Thank you for those wonderful shining stars.
Comment from Joan E.
What a fascinating photograph--one can see why Crissy is so close to your heart! How extraordinary that the doll had hair that could grow and that you have a red-haired daughter who found a replacement on eBay. I very much enjoyed your rhythmic, rhymed couplets as well. Brava! Best wishes in the contest- Joan

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem about an object that is important to you since your childhood when you lost your precious doll. You told your children about your sadness and theyou got you a perfect replica after many years.

Comment from Darlene Franklin
Oh, what a lovely childhood memory - with such vivid detail - but best of all is the gift-giver, your own red-haired doll. Oh, how sweet. Thank you for sharing.

I have never heard of this Doll, I only know Barbie, it must have only been sold in America? But this little doll must have won your heart and your memory is fond and warm here, a sweet remembrance, love Dolly x

Comment from Pam (respa)
-A very nice image
and presentation.
-A well written poem
about this doll that you loved.
-Effective rhyme, imagery,
and the poem flows very well.
-Excellent description of her
in the first verse.
-You show how sad you were
about losing her in verse two.
-A very good verse with
the extra special Christmas present.
-The concluding verses are
very good, too, as you describe
getting things on e-Bay and
your lovely daughter.
-This is very worthy of
a sixth star and a
win in the contest!
-Good luck!

Thank you so much for your kind review. : ) I have fixed the background color. I didn't even know it looked like that. I must have accidentally changed the colors when I went to edit some words. Lol. Thank you for reading

You are very welcome. The poem looks great! I guess I missed a couple of verses. I revised your review for you. I would have given you 6 stars if
they had been available!

You did a super job with your contest entry, Mystery Author. Your verse are smooth flowing to tell this story. Your descriptive wording lets readers feel as if they are right there hearing you retell this story. What an ending, too. Your daughter is amazing to have taken it upon herself to locate another Crissy for you that you will treasure and think of her each time you see the doll. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Jan
