Ruby’s Red Riding Boots
Ruby loved playing in her room

She played with Daisy Dolly
In her trolley

She played with Billy Bob
The plastic Frog

She played build a house
With blocks and Mini Mouse

She played swim club
With Barbie in a plastic tub

Ruby loved playing outside

She played run around
With Geoff the greyhound

She played climb the tree
with squirrel McGee

She played hopscotch using stones and sticks
And built a hut from tiny mud bricks

Most of all Ruby loved playing with Hazelnut her horse

They played together in the meadow
They played together in the creek
They played follow the leader
They played hide and seek

One day when Ruby was playing capture the flag
Along came her mum with a big brown bag

Ruby peeped in, eyes open wide
something sparkled deep down inside

A pair of red riding boots shiny and new
she slipped them on, first one then two

Now when Ruby and Hazelnut play
Ruby wears her red riding boots
All through the day!
