A special little present

My special little present

It was a gift, quite small and wrapped in a box,
As I shredded the paper, coming off in small lots,
It was soon revealed,
The object inside made me squeal,
I felt joy, a smile spread across my face,
As I quickly lifted it out of its plastic case,
And to my pleasure,
Inside was a little doll,
One I would treasure
Until I grew old,
And as I put her down to rest
I imagined her in pretty flower dress,
I would brush her hair
As it was so fair
Her name was Amanda
And she was my special little present
