Freda's Day

Freda the ballerina’s tutu was a little too tight She had asked her mama to let it out last night This morning, she had eaten two flies too many Mama had let it out an inch, but was that plenty? She squeezed into the tutu feeling like a mouse under a crack Her ballet slippers were lost, and her high tops were black You can borrow my pink high tops said her best pal Pat Freda’s day got better after that.
