Shoes

Frogs like open toad shoes I'm told
Swamps might be where crocs are landing
A ninja likes to wear sneakers
Large shoes show good understanding!

The boss always looks for loafers
Detectives lean toward gumshoes
You'll see pumps in a hardware store
Clogs are what a plumber will choose

But sometimes people go barefoot
And though shoes do look kind of neat
Nothing is quite as comfortable
As when there are none on your feet!

G'day PAT … went barefoot outside for years. Put a pair of shoes on and a bee stung me on the ankle. I'm with you - thanks PAT - Lindsay
