Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

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
