Stories In Verse
Like taxis at curbside
they're waiting for hire.
Does nobody need them
to put out a fire?
A hydrant-like doorman
in red, buttoned up,
regards with suspicion
an innocent pup.
On days when it heatwaves
us kids scamper out
in swimsuits. Then hydrants
unscrew, spurt, and spout.
Doors, doors
That's all I know
Look for the doors
Wherever you go
Just close your eyes tight
And reach out your hand
Then slip through a door
To a faraway land
Doors, doors
That's all I know
Look for the doors
Wherever you go
Just close your eyes tight
And reach out your hand
Then slip through a door
To a faraway land
