It’s pretend
Wonders of wonders … you want one too?
Sarah’s baby doll … blond hair will do!
Everyone needs … a cuddle … a hug
Something … to watch over … love
Now mind you … says she … it’s pretend
But mine … alone … I’ll not … lend
She’ll swaddle … protect … coo ‘n adore
No one wants loneliness … furthermore
When Alzheimer’s storms … blow ‘n rain
Sarah ‘n friend … waltz memory lane.
