Yellow Wellies
Dec 2002
New yellow wellies for someone aged four
Guarding the bed every night:
Waiting to be
The first things she'll see
When she opens her eyes to the light.
Bright yellow wellies for someone aged four
Jumping in puddles for fun:
Splashing away's
A great game to play
And something that has to be done.
Strong yellow wellies for someone aged four
Kicking up leaves in the wood:
The pile of leaves
Comes up to the knees
So the kicking is not very good.
Warm yellow wellies for someone aged four
Crunching around in the snow:
Looking so bright
Against all the white
They leave footprints wherever they go.
Old yellow wellies for someone aged four
Lying around on their own:
Not much to do
Now winter is through
And the feet of their owner have grown.
