Row after row
Isle after isle
Different shades, hues, tints
Colors flow everywhere
All laced up

Heeled or flat
Casual or dressy—

Zebra print
To
Lace…

All unique
In their own
Special way

I slip on my sneakers—
Today they’re
Converse

Sunset red
Bus Yellow
Sky blue

Stitched together to form…
Wonderful!

So I slip on my sneakers
All laced up
Colors flow everywhere
Different shades, hues, tints
All together in the bottom of my closet—

When I wrote this I was thinking about my sea of shoes spilling out of my closet, onto the floor!
