They were half…

They were half size small.

They were a beautiful shoe, a half size small.

They were gorgeous, so gorgeous to see.

They were as worthless as worthless as could be.

They pinched and pinched even though you paid three hundred and three.

Deep down in the ocean did I through the shoes from thee.

Dead Mans Shoes

 

Dead Men Shoes

Dead men don’t need shoes. They are for decoration purposes only.

A  loved one died and was told to bring the best clothes for the “viewing”.

The family brought the clothes but forgot his shoes and told the funeral director, that they needed to go back retrieve his shoes because he wouldn’t be complete without them. The funeral director comment was this “When is he going on his next walk.”

 

Shoes are only meaningful on this side of the grave and with Gods grace, may you wear your shoes well and slip into your neighbor’s shoes when theres a need.

Shoes

Black shoes skid the floors, then your left with remorse.

Squeaking new shoes echo the halls, but feel good on balls of your feet.

Old shoes tell a story, from the first time you walk to school, to the time you broke the rules.

A shoe never fits a person in the same way, to the colors and to soul.

Black is for the business man, who carry a briefcase in his hand.

White is for a nurse who walks from room to room, giving out aid before the sick are consumed.

Pink is for the little girls with a pigtail and hold their heads high.

Brown is for the boys who throw rocks and have a dog walk along side.
