Kidnapping a Baby<\/p>\n
She did not mean to steal that baby you see.<\/p>\n
She only wanted to do a little trickery.<\/p>\n
She was herself only a child no more than three.<\/p>\n
She went and hid herself\u00a0 in a tree.<\/p>\n
Her mother called her and she ran to play.<\/p>\n
Danced on a slippery floor and cried<\/p>\n
she was wearing her mother’s shoes<\/p>\n
And she could have hurt herself or died.<\/p>\n
But instead she saw a pram with a baby who cried<\/p>\n
She stole him and ran away to play<\/p>\n
And they haven’t found the baby or her<\/p>\n
Perhaps they are both dancing far away!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
