Shoes
Step into my closet,
And look at all my shoes -
WAIT! Don’t trip!
Today is picture day,
And I just can’t choose!
I need the perfect pair,
But there’s no time for the store.
I could wear my green slippers,
But they have claws like a dinosaur.
I have shoes for ballet and tap
Oh No! My purple pair has a broken strap.
My sparkly pair lights up
when I skip and hop,
Oh, here’s my yellow sandals
and my squishy flip flops.
I’ve got rubber boots, cowboy boots
And boots for the snow.
Orange, Nope!
Blue, Nah!
Brown, No-No-No!
Black is very classy,
But heals are no good for recess.
GREAT! Now my room is a big mess!
I love my ruby red slippers,
But the magic just ran out-
This is giving me the blues!
I know, I’ll just wear the white ones,
And change my outfit to match my shoes!
