Here is The News:
‘Two incredible shoes.
Two incredible shoes.
That’s The News.
When it rains
they walk down drains.
They glow
in the snow.
They grizzle
in a drizzle.
They sneeze
in a breeze.
They get warm
in a storm.
They go soggy
when it’s foggy.
They’ve even hissed
in a mist.
But
(sad to say)
there came a terrible frost.
This is what happened:
they got lost.’
That was The News.
Two incredible shoes.
Two incredible shoes.
That was The News.
