A refugee with a crazy shoe
Dressed up in school uniform
Beautiful strips of white and blue
With a starched lacy ribbon
Mama ties up my long plaited hair
“You look so smart
My little princess”
With a warm big hug
“Off you go”
She says
Ooopppsss
It’s been raining
It’s cold…
My feet are freezing
My socks are soaking!!!
You’re at it again
And you’re still laughing
With a mouth wide open
My crazy hungry shoe!
