Mother Goose
Cinders has glass slippers To remind her of the ball. Puss, when he's relaxing, Leaves his boots out in the hall. Red ballet shoes compel you To dance through night and day And the giant who wears ten-league boots Lives very far away. Clown shoes are labelled left and right To save from any muddles, And William wears Wish Wellingtons To keep him safe from puddles. Your world is full of fairytales Of dragon slaying kings And one day, when your time has come, You'll do enchanted things. But in your first shoes walk with me And tightly hold my hand And know that I'll be always here Whatever life has planned.
