An Empty Bootie
The chilly winter’s day
Turned hard and bitter
“be a good little chap Dave
could you be brave
and venture back to the frozen lake
your baby sister Ava
has lost a bootie
and the weather is too cold
for her to go without“
Dave shrugs his shoulders
And trudges off
“Oh Ava, I wonder
What’s taking Dave so long”
Suddenly two hysterical children
Came running towards them
“Help!”
“we just a boy
fall through the ice
on the frozen lake
we look into the hole
but all we saw
was a babies bootie
“He was Gone!”
