Shoes

  Sometimes its hard....cause I can't remember

  which shoes are for town, play or snow in December

  Shoes are for feet and my feet like to go

to all of the many good places I know

  My mom says I cant wear my good shoes outside

but I sometimes forget....and my play shoes hide

  So what should I do when my outside kitty beckons me

and my good shoes are the only ones I see?

  And while it was kitty I initially saw....

"Well, mom, the mud...I don't know about that at all"

  "My play shoes?"  Well....I don't know where they are....

I took them off while digging in your car....

  I try so hard to keep things straight......

good shoes for town and play shoes for running through the gate

and chasing bugs, digging mud pies and yes, wading the creek.....

but....what do I wear after my play shoes leak?

  This really is hard....and I wish I knew

 why I can't just wear irrigation boots to church too

 

 So, what am I to do when the world is outside

   and I want to be in it and my play shoes hide.

  Mom....can I go barefoot....its much more fun....

    and far less stressful for everyone.  :)
