Dollhouses
it never
occurred to me
why
I love dollhouses
so much
why a grown adult
would rather have a dollhouse
with a miniature family
and all its miniature pieces
over diamonds and gold
a dollhouse symbolizes
something constant
something secure
it’s a lovely, happy, peaceful place
to live
the orphan in me
loves the little family
that lives in the little house
with all its little things
the mom in the kitchen
the dad at the table
the baby in its crib
they’re all together
forever
