| Not the same shoes really!! |
I went shopping one summer afternoon,
And hit upon a pair of shoes,
Block heels, Faux leather,
Straps and laces, brown in colour!
I fell in love quite stupidly,
Bought them in a bit of hurry,
And woe Dear, they won't fit me...
They lay abandoned in the closet,
Long forgotten and disregarded,
Until my curious little cousin,
Found them fitting to her pleasure!
Brown and buckled, laces and heels,
All so perfect on her little feet!

DeleteWell, it is so good that someone else was able to make good use of the shoes you had thought were treasures but turned out not to fit. Glad they were treasures for her, and I am sure this made you happy as well.

DeleteHa! Glad the perfect match was found :) Really fun take on the prompt.
ReplyDeleteFunny and sweet! I'm glad those shoes found someone who could wear them and didn't turn into trash. I wear the clothes my mum used to wear when she was younger - they no longer fit her and they're a treasure to me. Delightful write, Arushi!
