And as powerful poems do, this one takes me back....to the time when I was a guest, but as one of three girls playing together was always cast into the role of Cinderella. It was lonely, but I wanted to play. xxAmy LVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16625469276544426664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5740307479750463845.post-80764208172907023092015-09-25T16:10:22.654-04:002015-09-25T16:10:22.654-04:00Very fun poem.

You just made me imagine this so well, Buffy. My granddaughters play in their closet all the time. I wonder if someone had asked for poems about closets if everyone would have a memory, too.

The last line sinks the nail.
