My Shoes

I come inside and off they go

My shoes are muddy on the toe

Cause on adventures they go with me

For just today we climbed a tree

We swung on branches and jumped straight down

I did not see the mud on the ground

It got all over my shoes you see

And that is why they can’t come inside with me

In the summer I wear flipity flops

Cause it is just simply to hot for socks

In the spring I wear my running shoes

Cause running is what I love to do

And in the fall I prefer my loafers

It’s far more sophisticated for jokers

In winter time it’s boots you see

That I want tromping snow with me

My Shoes do like to get out and play

And they get sad when it’s a rainy day

Cause when it rains I stay inside

And in the closet they must hide

But when the sun comes out again

We run outside, Me and my friends.
