Notes About The Poem

Image result for man and woman barefoot

Loafers and Leather Shoes

Let's race out, where the riverbanks surround The grasses flitting upon ladders of pine: Kick your loafers, my soles not leather-bound Carefree as toes grind through a hillside climb. Leave those pairs while tender moments begin, For sunset rises till gazes behold Our summers of youth, our love deep within To recall theme songs, and never grow old. Come dance me barefoot, ignoring night’s hours That we waltz along , down through sand’s floor Igniting fire- glow amidst wildflowers; Shoeless into dawn...this pleasure I adore.

This lovely write really thrills this adventurous side of me my friend! I surely enjoyed reading this incredible poem this evening! You have enthralled me to the fullest by your tender words of summer fun! Great Work! BTW I used to oil paint but haven't found the time to continue to do so. But I miss is terribly. I loved doing it as it was so much fun!
