ONE SHOE


I was thinking about a poem I’d written for my young daughter a number of years ago, sort of a study in hey! things could be a lot worse. If I remember correctly, it went something like this:

little girl
little girl
what shall I do?

one stocking is red, the other is blue

little girl
little girl
what shall I do?

one stocking is old, the other is new

little girl
little girl
what shall I do?

two stockings I have, but only one shoe
