What Shall I Wear?

By Bertra Mason Kusik

When it is cold, I like to wear

A soft, thick hat upon my hair,

And furry socks to hug my toes.

Cold weather’s best for cozy clothes.

If it is raining, then I choose

A pair of boots instead of shoes.

A big umbrella keeps me dry

When raindrops splash fast from the sky.

Sometimes it’s windy; then it’s best

To button tight my bright red vest.

I pull a scarf around my chin,

To keep my hair all snug within.

When it’s as hot as hot can be,

I like to let my hair blow free.

I run barefoot along the street

And play with all the friends I meet.
