‘Once upon a time’
Stories galore intro line
Dysfunctional childhood
Thought twas bad, not good
Santa forgot me every year
Disappointment, followed by tears
When became a wife, then mother
Vowed thy children would ne’er suffer
Pangs Christmas view no tree nor presents
Parental role, constant belief God omnipresence
Youngster forever prayed for fashionista doll
Now via app play dress-up with avatar Michelle
