Barefoot barefoot, kiss mommy's lips
Barefoot barefoot, scratch daddy's chin
Barefoot barefoot, tickle the grass
Barefoot barefoot, climb the rocks
Barefoot barefoot, splash in the puddle
Barefoot barefoot, sink in the sand
Barefoot barefoot, wiggle your toes
Barefoot barefoot, walk tippie toes
Barefoot barefoot, has gone to sleep
Barefoot barefoot, loves to breath
Note: I was inspired to write this poem to encourage all parents to let their little children play barefeet. In the west, there are lots of reservations in letting children play barefoot. This is not the case in India and most traditional cultures where children are barefoot for most of the time. Being barefoot is good for the sensory and muscular development of the child's feet. Every toe plays a unique role in balancing, walking, running, climbing and all of them should be used actively.
