Barefoot

Behold
A voice announces
Release me
Expose me to the elements
Free me from fungus
Outdoors
Over cool ticklish grass, warm grainy sidewalks, and prankish pebbles
Time to rejoice

Thanks Kim. I'm reliving the joy of running around barefoot like I did as a kid all summer long each summer I hope to develop thick calluses on my feet :-)
