New Shoes
Posted: 30 May 2014, 12:21I'd wear my new shoes.
All shiny and red;
And sparkly too;
With thin straps of blue.
I looked on my dresser.
I looked on my chair.
I looked in the closet.
The shoes were not there.
Peered under the bed;
And around the floor;
Yet, I could not see
My new shoes anymore…
2. Flip flops/high tops
roller wheels/high heels
relaxing slippers/swimming flippers
comfy flats/even shoes for dogs and cats.
At the store
theres tons of shoes
it makes it hard
for me to choose
On the floor
are shoes in bins
and upon the shelves
are moccasins.
3. New shoes, new shoes,
Red and pink and blue shoes.
Tell me, what would you choose,
If they'd let us buy?
Buckle shoes, bow shoes,
Pretty pointy-toe shoes,
Strappy, cappy low shoes;
Let's have some to try.
4. 39 shoes....39 shoes
What does that tell you?
What's a gal to do
When she's only got 39 shoes?
Wouldn't you know it
It's the very pair
I wanted to wear.
5. Red shoes out of step in a busy street
Flowers in a field of continental quilt
Soon people stop to look or stare
After all, fashion is a serious affair
Two colors or more will make a flag
But only Red can stand out in a crowd
Without the media luna or a white star
These shoes are claiming freedom out loud.
