A Poem - Little Girl - Do You Like?

Question: A Poem - Little Girl - Do You Like!?

Little girl sits melancholy
Secrets, a doll, her company

Chocolate eyes melt down her dress
Upside down grin, meekly grotesque

Here dolly, have a cup of tea
You will feel better, drink and see

Little girl lingers gingerly
Fingers twist uncomfortably !.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A fine example of a child projecting her feelings onto a doll!. This device is used by psychologists to determine the feelings of children, who are too young or intimidated to express them verbally!. You, however, are an expert at expressing your feelings verbally!. The reader feels deep sympathy for the feelings expressed in this poem!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hmm, why do I find this disturbing in content!?

I have a feeling this poem is deceptively revealing of a child's ability to act out what is going on in their minds and in their lives!.
