Shoes Galore
Dancing shoes on dainty feet
Strutting their stuff as up-coming starlets
Hoping to make it real big
Of glamour names in neon lights
Some dirty all over with mud smeared
Scoring such brilliant goals on soccer grounds
Made in China under licence never you mind
Of Ronaldos, Messis and Beckhams beckon
Wild West legends with sharp stirrups
Guns blazing on black and white stallions
Bunched as bad guys or as law keepers
They died with their boots on
Following the icon the late Princess Di
The chosen few with Jimmy Choo’s
Placed on a pedestal with respectability
The common and unheralded shoes

ReplyDeletehaha this was a fun read. Defintely shoed me away to shores filled with shoes and tons of reference to boot..haha
ReplyDeleteGreaty response to the prompt, but what is it about shoes? Most folk seem not to care too much for feet, but think shoes fascinating. This was fun, thoroughly enjoyed, but time we heard it for the feet! (Maybe I should.... )
ReplyDeletecool to read about different styles of shoes and those who wore them. very creative!
