Molly the Dolly lived in a house
With her two best friends
Ferret the Cat and a Dog named Mouse
The house was small but had enough rooms for Molly the Dolly to sweep with a broom
Two bedrooms, one for Molly and one for guests, Molly of course had the one that was best
A room to bathe amongst bubbles and foam, lay in warm water and revive weary bones
A room to lounge and put up your feet, in front of a real fire, giving out real heat
In this room Molly also entertained guests with cups of tea and slices of cake, muffins, scones and individual tray bakes
On a table by the fire was a chess set in miniature, each character resembling characters from Robin Hood
Maid Marion of course The White Queen beautiful and serene
Robin Hood The White King, robbing the rich and helping the poor made Robin Hood very good
Friar Tuck was a Bishop of course
King John on the other hand so horrid and mean, with a solid Black Heart, could only be The Black King
On rainy days Molly the Dolly would invite her friends in to play, you could never tell who would win, one bad move and the game would spin
One minute Molly would be winning the next "checkmate" would shout Holly Divine the girl from next door, "5-3 to me" she did shout, showing Molly how she was keeping score
Also in this room two smaller beds all soft and plush for Ferret the Cat and the Dog named Mouse
The beds were close to the fire to keep them both toasty and warm and next to Molly the Dolly's chair, so Molly could have them play on her lap when she raised her hand in a single clap
The last room of course was the Kitchen where Molly the Dolly spent most of her day cooking up batches of heavenly soup and baking scrumptious Pies that were full in the belly and good on the eyes
There was a Front Door to usher guests in and a Back Door to usher them out
The garden ran round and about the whole house outside and came equipped with swings and a slide, for fun of course, and a stable just the right size to house a miniature horse, a vegetable patch to grow veg for her soups and trees to bear fruit for the scrumptious pies
The garden went on and on it was so long you couldn't believe your eyes the garden was twice as long as it was wide
The garden ended where a river began and still the river was on Molly's land
On a hot day Molly the Dolly would put on a hat and slap on some sunscreen and with Ferret the Cat and the Dog named Mouse they would exit the house and hop and skip to the river bank to play
Molly the Dolly would throw some sticks for the Dog named Mouse and small pretend mice for Ferret the Cat
Molly would take off her shoes and her socks and her hat step in the water not too deep, drink something thirst quenching but not too sweet, keeping herself cool in this natural outdoor swimming pool
At the end of the day the three friends would return to the house inside dry their feet and clean their hands, eat some Pies and drink sweet tea then return to the lounge and settle in
Their favourite show on TV they didn't need anything else for the night just the friendship of these uniquely different three
So now I've introduce you to Molly the Dolly and a few of her friends, where they live and what they like to do.
I hope you enjoy reading about them too as I delve into their lives and hopefully take you along for the ride.
