WHAT A SMALL BOY THINKS!
“IT WOULD BE NICE.’’
It would be nice if real boys could always play with real toys every day
I’d have a sea-liun’s shiny nose
Diving and splashing round my toes in my bath. I’d have a soldier dressed in red. With white plumes waving on his head. In the park.
I’d have an elephant to ride, And a black man walking at his side In the fields. I'd have a puppy in my bed To cuddle when my prayers are said, In the dark.
