Stop! Step through the door And wear them new shoes. You won’t need a hat any more, But oh yes, love the hair! You will need to be strong While appearing dainty and pretty. You will learn to disarm egos With just a genuine smile. Open your heart and share With genuine concern. It’s not who shouts the loudest But who listens with empathy. Well done, these clothes Match the shoes so well. Now let’s see you navigate With them new shoes. You will stumble as we have But you are one of us now, So stand strong and proud, Daughter, sister, friend.

Them new shoes
Stop! Step through the door And wear them new shoes. You won’t need a hat any more, But oh yes, love the hair! You will need to be strong While appearing dainty and pretty. You will learn to disarm egos With just a genuine smile. Open your heart and share With genuine concern. It’s not who shouts the loudest But who listens with empathy. Well done, these clothes Match the shoes so well. Now let’s see you navigate With them new shoes. You will stumble as we have But you are one of us now, So stand strong and proud, Daughter, sister, friend.
On maturing and learning
