Fashion hound, that I am I have shoes for every occasion One black pair of Adidas Probably made by some East Asian I only have one pair of feet Why would I need two pairs of shoes? I can only wear one pair at a time Besides, I'm easily confused Should you ever find me out with two pair And you happen to be in a bind I am the kind of fella that shares Just remember, the black Adidas are mine.

I just bought two pairs. If I mix and match them, that makes four pairs...

One pair of 'proper' shoes for posh occasions and sandals for everything else. Love this one Dan, short and succinct. God Bless. D.

oh Danny, my poem is just the opposite idea. I tried to post it this morning but could not get my dang office libre files to open up for me. Sure hope they open up tonight when I get home from work. i am late at school subbing. Anyway, I really like how you did this theme. Good job.

What I hate is discovering I'm out and about with mismatched shoes (at least mismatched socks hide well). Guess I shouldn't have fifty shades of footwear;-) Thanks for the morn'n chuckler! ~ j
