My Love of Crocs

It has come into question
My love for the Croc
Whether it be in bare twinkle toes
Or with knee high socks

Rubber on rubber
From top end to sole
Soft spongy comfort
To take on the road

Yes they're here for the comfort
Not here for the speed
Certainly not for the fashion
If that's what you seek

You might have already guessed 
That left long ago
Trying hard to impress
Those in the know

The older you get 
The less that you care
Hence my love for the Croc
And fur underwear

But back to my Crocs
Like it or not
It's all that I wear
They're all that I've got

Ask me which style
That I mostly own 
(Inquiring minds want to know)
I'd have to say
Why, "The Original"

It's streamlined to date
With the perfect number of holes
I even wear them on dates
These Crocs got it going on

So let me be the first
To let you all in on this
My love for Crocs
Is just what it is

Be it in the bare feet
Or with paisley socks
You need to get over it
Cause I love my Crocs

My page doesn't allow me to comment on your comments. I am pretty munched maxed out and all that I could say was rhymed up. I also had to work hard on it. I cannot produce another poem. Natural poets, like you, never run out.

This poem is highly entertaining! I referenced this poem in my poem in the words, "I browsed his croc poems...". The great poet, Chris Green just made fun of my obsession with crocs -- in his comment on Croc Cradles. I had asked him for criticism. I actually thank G-d for Crocs.
