My shoes went rippp;
and all I could think was of the new pair that I would buy;
It may sound familiar to you , but the time has come to get a new pair instead;
That buying bug bit me when I saw an ad in the papers just the other day !
Oh my ! what a shine and a bargain .... I have to have that pair but my old shoes are still okay . Out to the field we went one sunny morning and how we embraced what we saw there ,
For there at the tracks were two goal posts and all the memories came flooding in ... how once upon a time I would run free in the field . Alas , I thought what a sight to behold when I started a short jog as all of my limbs are fully retired ! And jog that I did and I had so much fun ... being free and surrounded by something so familiar to me.
On and on I went , it felt to so good at last . We were there for hours and the heat was beat and on us. Soon it was time to go , I hated to leave my once upon a time cool place , but we had to go .
With my shoes still going strong , I willed myself to send the kids home, up and down I went .... Finally , as I sat down to rest and I saw the most shocking scene . To my horror , my shoes came apart . It was a huge tear . Oh , what would I do !
The sports is this Sunday and I need a pair fairly quick . I said goodbye and a prayer for my torn shoes . It has served me well . It's out of pain now and I threw it in the bin....
..... for now , sitting at the corner of my room is my new pair of sports shoes , I promise to treat it with honor and respect this time.
