Night Shoes

Night shoes, flashy white shoes Dancing shoes, to jazz or blues Fancy shoes -- purple, orange or pink Hypnotize night eyes, blink-and blink-a-blink Sleek shoes, pointy-toed, pinched-waist narrow Worn with Italian suits or by urban caballeros Night shoes go out and paint the town Lift you way high up ~ never bring you down May 14, 2019 Entry in Night Shoes contest Sponsor: Anthony Slausin

Your shoes are jumping around in a disco, but wait, I thought they closed back in 1995. Liked this a bunch!

Hmmm. Really. No wonder I can't find anywhere to do the 'disco duck.' LOL. ~ Mr. Donald Summers, Jr.

My dear friend, how about two comments in the same night..?! :)) I was swept up in the flashy, fancy and fantastic spirit of your wonderful poem, Gershon. Can't help but smile! Best wishes for a win and warmest wishes for you.. ~Susan

LOL! Let’s sing it; ‘And all the bells were ringin.. The Night that Susan Went to Town.. And all the people were singin..’ Ah, May 14 will always be very special indeed! Lol! Make it three..? Oh no.. too much of a good thing might undo the magic of the moment, my friend ;)

O, Susan! I am overcome with joy by the abundance of your commentary. This truly is a night to remember for me. May 14 will forever be etched in my heart as The Night that Susan Went to Town!!!! (Joan Baez, anyone?!) LOL. Thank you so much, my special friend. And go ahead. Make it three. Why not? ~ gw
