Oh, the sneaker/walk dilemma. Do I have to walk if my Nikes are too tight, or if they fit just right? This poem is the bees knees.

Ouch! I mean OUCH! The bruised knees is painful to read when you have the kind of arthritis I do in my right knee.

It's painful enough to type with arthritis in one's wrists and fingers as well. ~ Ain't we got fun?!

I had some other thoughts, but dare not mention them, but they had to do with pain! Fun, gw. Your humor is showing!

I'm happy to hear that my humor is showing -- and not my epidermis, Heaven forbid! Smiles, gw

Forward in Reverse, all I can think of running forward to the bathroom with tight knees. Hugs Eve

Now you're talking, Eve. That's about where I was at... (See Sara K's comment below). Season's Greetings, gw

Interesting work. Creative use of the idea. I wonder if the knees get bruised from being bent in prayer because of the tight squeeze. Thanks for the visit. Sara

You are far more high-minded than I could ever be, Sara... I'm embarrassed to admit what I was thinking of when I wrote this... What was I thinking, anyway?! lol. Season's best, gw
