Lost Purple Sock

 

Hello, I am a purple sock who has lost my mate recently,
we were beloved by our owner and she is real devastated !
She liked to wear us in her dance shoes and we liked it too,
we loved the whirling and twirling, and the leaping in the air.
Oh, where are you ?  We miss you !  You are not in the dryer,
or in the washing machine, or laundry basket or under the
bed (sometimes you like it there.)  I am laying on the dresser
crying, weeping.  Our owner has not given up hope yet, (I think)
but, guess what-  she just got a new pair of purple socks, sigh !

I oft have that lone sock, sitting, waiting, hoping…for its match to reappear! Oft separated…one on floor, one in the basket…the one should have tried harder…lol! Congratulations!
