She threw off her quilt and jumped up and got going.
She clambered through backyards, leapt dogs and climbed walls.
Her Whoosh wasn’t trusting. Her Whoosh wasn’t slowing,

Although Winnie Wisp felt a little bit foolish,
she trusted the tug on the feet in her shoes.
Although Winnie Wisp felt a little uncoolish,
that tug was a feeling she couldn’t refuse.
