My Little Red Shoes

My little red shoes

So shiny and bright.

I don you from morning

into the night.

I am not sure if it is the sound

you make on the floor

Or the bright color

that I cannot help but adore.

Some little girls have their wands

or their crowns,

Some may have their fairy wings

or their beautiful gowns.

I only need one thing

and that is for sure

It is the shoe that adorns

I pray you can endure

I take you to parks, to church

and to bed.

You never leave me,

that is the day that I dread.

So be with me forever

my bright tiny shoes.

For you are the one I will

invariably choose.
