Mismatched Socks
I have three pairs of patterned socks,
With colors and designs
That vary in each duo
Set on horizontal lines.
From triangles to hearts and dots
To checkerboards, as well
As numbers and some words,
But what they say I cannot tell.
Today I noticed, far too late,
My socks are not the same.
Of course, right from the dryer,
Matching pairs had been my aim.
Yet somehow I messed up
And now my outfit is complete
With mismatched socks, although they still
Feel cozy on my feet.
