Queen Mary had a doll house
Which
is currently on view.
It
was one hundred years ago
It
made its grand debut.
With
running water, working lifts,
Electric
lights and art,
The
house sounds so amazing
I
don’t quite know where to start.
A
thousand mini works of art,
Five
hundred mini books
And
furniture and silver
All
deserving second looks.
A
pair of throne chairs and, of course.
Some
miniature crown jewels,
A
bicycle, real food and soap
And
pots and pans and tools.
A
tiny vacuum can be pushed,
A
piano can be played,
Embroidered
sheets are on the beds,
Pure
luxury displayed.
A
cellar holds champagne and gin
And
whiskey, plus fine wine;
The
ceilings, walls and rugs throughout
Are
regal by design.
This
doll house was a gift but not
Intended
for a child.
Queen
Mary, in her 50’s,
Was
delighted and beguiled.
If
Windsor Castle’s in your plans,
Then
stop and pay a visit
To
this doll house, just like yours or mine,
But
slightly more exquisite.
