Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 891 (Just Like Grandmother)


We went shopping, Mommy and me-

To find the perfect doll, it just had to be.

.

It had to have the prettiest outfit-

It had to have legs that bent, so that it could sit.

.

It had to have hair just like us-

Otherwise, we might have to make a fuss.

.

The eye color was important too-

Same old same, the whole way through.

.

For Mommy and me we look a lot alike, in

many ways-

More some so, on certain days.

.

And, to figure out why, we need to look no further-

Than pictures, of much loved Grandmother.

.

A generational thing, that happens to be passed on-

Been going on since the first break of dawn.

.

We went shopping, Mommy and me-

To find the perfect doll, it just had to be.
