One Lost Shoe

One Lost Shoe

What to do:
Find the lost garden shoe. 
Look here and there with detective flare.

Searching won’t fail; so, don’t pull out your curly hair! 
Begin sniffing here, there; it has to be somewhere.  
Grizzly bears smell, stinky shoes; then, flail! 

So, forget your tall tale.
And inhale!

Got a chuckle out of this! Oh those stinky shoes--hope they are the washable variety. Best wishes in the contest with your poem. Thanks for the day brightener. Karen
