ON A COLD AFTERNOON
My toes is froze.
Goodness knows,
How hard it is,
When toes is froze.
One mitten’s gone.
I had it on.
I’m sure I did,
But now it’s gone.
My ears are red.
My mother said,
“Don’t lose your hat.”
But now so red.
I’d like to eat.
I’d like some heat.
But most of all:
Is this my street?
My toes is froze.
Goodness knows,
How hard it is,
When toes is froze.
One mitten’s gone.
I had it on.
I’m sure I did,
But now it’s gone.
My ears are red.
My mother said,
“Don’t lose your hat.”
But now so red.
I’d like to eat.
I’d like some heat.
But most of all:
Is this my street?
