Shoeless

One early morn on a cold and misty day I saw a man walking across the way I was at the stop light, and about to make a U I said to myself, "That man's shoeless; what do I do?" I turned left and met him just around the corner I said, "Sir, what happened to your shoes?" He said, "Someone stole my shoes." I said to him, 'Here's your shoes." He was baffled and hesitated, but finally accepted. The man who was shoeless, now had a pair of shoes I was now headed home and barefooted. But at home, I had at least two pair of shoes. 08042017PSContest, Two Pair Of Shoes, John Lawless
