Christian Louboutins and Gucci

Things to do all over my floor
Letters and statements and bills galore
Letters from friends in country and town
Losing touch with a friend would bring on a frown
Statements of monies I’m spending or lending
Many more I am sure are filed under pending
Do I need so many shoes made by Christian Louboutin
Oh yes ~ for nothing less would I ever put my foot in
With their stylish leather uppers and soles of ruby red
Why would I consider wearing other shoes instead
Oh dear those bills ~ those dreaded bills are here
Will they cut off my gas ‘tis something that I fear
Or my phone – can’t phone home ~ did he call ~ I won’t know
I am now in the red ~ running out of my spare ‘dough’
So down on my knees for to sort out all of these
Must get things in order or accounts they will freeze
But today's the day I saw it ~ that golden Gucci bag
Cannot live without it ~ will it cause those tongues to wag
No food upon the table ~ no bills that I can pay
But Christian Louboutin’s and Gucci get me through the day

Written 1st March 2021 ~ Spring has sprung so having fun…

Congratulations on your top win Ann, a wonderful poem. There was a programme on TV some years ago, and the presenter said on TV she could buy everything in a day if she went to New York, so the TV station paid for her trip and her pocket money she had to shop until she would drop, to prove her point 24 hours and she had to return, but she bought so much she could hardly carry everything so the air hostesses helped her on her return to Johannesburg. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
