"Choosing Shoes" (--Frida Wolfe)

"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.

Bright shoes, white shoes,

Dandy-dance-by-night shoes,

Perhaps-a-little-tight shoes,

Like some?  So would I.

BUT

Flat shoes, fat shoes,

Stump-along-like-that shoes,

Wipe-them-on-the-mat shoes,

That's the sort they'll buy."

(--Frida Wolfe)

(Those last shoes are the ones I'm wearing today!  Nothing glamorous, but they sure are comfy.)
