Maggie and her magic shoes

Maggie and her magic shoes

Maggie loves horses,
flying horses.
Her shoes have wings,
rainbow colored.
Like Pegasus, they fly.

Maggie loves puddles,
splashing puddles.
In yellow rubber boots
she won't get wet,
like a duck, she paddles on by.

The Moon glows silver;
her silver slippers shine bright.
Magic moonlight
makes Maggie a star.
She joins the Moon in the sky.

Maggie's uncle likes cars,
very fast cars;
her roller skate wheels
let out a roar.
She waves as she passes him by.

Maggie's mouse squeaks.
Her shoes squeak too.
The kitten follows her
wherever they go,
mewing for minced mouse pie.

Maggie loves flip-flops
that change into flippers
as she picks up litter,
then dives in and swims
all the way to Shanghai!

Maggie takes off clogs
to put on clean sandals
then sits on a mat
while she visits her aunt
sipping tea among the bonsai.

Maggie's sneakers sneak
past her parents,
her teddy in tow,
as off to beddy-bye they go
to dream of butterflies.
