Woman Who Wanted A Shoe

This poem is dedicated to +Adrianna Joleigh 


Woman Who Wanted A Shoe

There was a young woman who wanted a shoe.
She started with one, and then she bought two.
With each one she bought, she had to make room.
She cleaned out some space and swept with her broom.
The footwear collection grew so immense,
she added an annex surrounded by fence.
She stacked her moccasins, mukluks and mules,
"Out of my way, I'm shoe hunting, fools!"
She adored sling-backs, slippers and sneakers.
She loved a good pair that'd stun anyone's peepers.
She loved to climb hills in sling-backs and heels.
She'd rather be found in footwear than riding on wheels.
She drew the line at work boots and waders,
those for labor or searching for 'gators.
The shoe fetish's growth was exponential.
The footwear collection reached full potential.
She proudly displays them for mankind to view.


She’ll let you adore them if you donate a shoe.

Christmas Day is here!

Christmas Day is here! Christmas toys assemble, little armies in strict array Christmas days tremble with memory's magic display Christmas ways resemble lost youth's joyous play Christmas snow remembers forgotten childhood days Christmas tinsel twinkles with the blinking colored lights Christmas memories sparkle in the yellow candlelight  Christmas tears sprinkle on the lonely winter nights Christmas years dwindle as they amble out of sight Christmas morn' sends Santa down the warm chimley, there Christmas morn' brings Jesus in the cold wood manger, dear Christmas morn' rings soundly, filled with festive cheer Christmas morn' sings loudly: Christmas Day is here! © 2014 ajwrites57 A Long ❤ ❤ ❤ Merry Christmas Card:  By Souvenir Post Card Company, New York (eBay front back) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons Soldier Image:  Brownie in Christmas Land by Marian Jack, 1922 via open clipar...

Life Without Color

Someone asked, "What would your life be without color?"  I answered,  "My life would be pallid and pale without color.  Each day would be drab, dreary and dismal.  There'd be no primary colors, no rainbows,  no yellow sunshine, no red-blue-yellow sunsets  and no white clouds. No white snow or black storm clouds.  I'd walk in an indistinct and neutral existence.  No green  trees, no green  grass, no blue seas, no blue skies,  would leave me cheerless and dry. My face would not turn red  with anger or embarrassment. My face would not turn white  with fear or pain. I'd not grow green with envy.  Nothing would be just black and white.  My life would be full of motionless emotion,  if there were no color. © 2013 ajwrites57 Image URI:  http://mrg.bz/fwDYZp Image URI:  http://mrg.bz/g6haeq By  Hairysuncold Please find my other writings on Hub...
