There's a goblin in my cupboard, <br />he eats up all my socks; <br />and just in case you haven't heard, <br />he lives in the shoe box. <br /> <br />He choosy and quite picky, <br />He has a stringent rule; <br />He seems to be finicky, <br />He eats only socks for school. <br /> <br />Poor Mum is at her wit's end, <br />She can never find a pair; <br />I love to drive her round the bend, <br />as much as I can dare! <br /> <br />For the time that we are searching, for that one elusive sock, <br />I get some time to play some more; Mum forgets about the clock!<br /><br />Roann Mendriq<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poetry-for-children-lost-socks/
