Here is the full text of her poem:;
I've never been to Haiti and that makes me shed a tear
So I've never seen kids there but I'll show you the ones here
My brother and sister were born in Cap Haitien; that is the reason we love the Haitian nation
My brother and sister have brown skin and black hair; Dahelson's right here and Ellie's over there
All kids are different but God loves us the same even when we have different features different sounding names
Like Zoe and Dahelson and Amstamaelle; but we call her Ellie in case you couldn't tell
It's almost time for bed so my rhyme is all through; say good night Thing One, Say good night Thing Two
So, for Day Six our answer is over
I need to go help Horton find his missing clover
[Horton Hears a Who! is one of Zoe's favorite books by Dr. Seuss]
