Footloose

 I came to pick you up from the day care

you were playing at the mini kitchen

I wanted you to play a while

then you moved to another station

a rectangular glass box with yellow and black sand in it.

You moved it up and down and wanted to open it

You were taken to the 3s class

A new area, lot to explore

you picked the paints, but your teacher said

we dont have the setup, the paint aprons...

Now I had to plead you to follow me

outside you saw puddles

you were stepping into it

my scream stopped you

Half willingly, I want you to enjoy the puddle

but I dont want you to get dirty

you did leave your footprints on the wet mud

luckily there were tissues in the car

for your muddied shoes which had

little rocks from the dry land than the wet

You found a wooden scale under the tree

you dug a little mud in the wet area

and few steps away where it was dry

you tried to no avail

You wanted to take the scale with you

I convinced you to leave it where you found it..

Curious you....

Footloose..
