What Can The Matter Be

WHAT CAN THE MATTER BE

Sitting on the sidewalk
all forlorn and blue
a tattered child of four
looking for a clue

Freckled face smilimg
eyes of blue a glow
golden hair upon his head
a small face full of woe

Tattered pants with patches
holey shoes and ragged shirt
a small and lovely child
who is so full of hurt

Did he lose his wagon?
did he forget his way?
did someone hurt him?
what has he to say?

Has someone left him?
has he lost his dog?
such a simple reason
seems he lost his frog!
