She’s just a girl with everything
Nice house, fast car, good friends
Clothes the envy of any model
Perfect hair. Look no split ends!

Adored by the masses you see
She creates riots in the mall
Everyone wants a piece of her
She’s a perfect little doll.

Ladies, go seek in your closet
The version you stashed there
Men, just sit back and think
About her long blonde hair

Today, she celebrates a birthday
Can a girl really tell her age?
Happy Birthday Barbie
You get better as you age

um,... I never had any good barbie dolls b/c I popped all of their heads off and cut their hair and wounded them almost as soon as I got them....yep.  But I played with my friends barbies nicely.    *laughs*

Whoa !  
This one sure brings back lots of memories.
Very nicely done, gal.  

As cute as Barbie is,
I really wonder when
I'll meet a real live guy
like KEN !

But if Barbie were real... wouldn't she be pretty strange looking???

Nice goddess...

I never had a big thing with Barbie. Had a couple but was more interested in climbing trees with my brothers..lol. My daughter loves her though. Thanks for the read Sharon.

A very artistic poem you have here!
Everything you said about Barbie is right too!

Thanks for your kind words! I heard that Barbie turned 41 today and realized that there is hope for us all!

Love this poem, brought back the memories of my case full of barbies and all their clothes that I sold at a tag sale for $1.00, I still kick myself today.

LOL that's it? She's only 41? hahaha....
Well, I can't say that I ever had a barbie either....just didn't get into them.
My daughters have mulitutes of them though. hmmn, you think we'll still look that good? Maybe we'll look better than she will when she hits 70 ya think?  By that time, they'll have added some smaller boobs and some chunks here and there to her?! haha

How clever you are, Poet deVine!

I have to tell ya a wee story, though,
about a dog named Jake. Jake was a golden retriever, a fun family dog, except for one thing...Jake loved to chew up Barbie Dolls!

We'd find them missing heads, feet and hands, and doubbed them "Barbie Art."

My daughter, who now owns less Barbies than she once did, was not thrilled!!!!

Thanks for conjuring up those old memories!
