Sock It To Me

The store had lots of funky socks - Nobody could have missed 'em. The ones I chose had elephants - Now, how could I resist 'em? Another pair had cherries And (the special called for 3), I finished with an argyle Made in colors just for me. The men's collection rivaled What the women's had, I'd bet, The choices overwhelming; You'd think all would buy them, yet... Most people stick with solids - Boring black or white or gray. If only they would realize How cool socks can make your day! So next time you are shopping, Give yourself a little treat And see how you'll be uplifted With some funk upon your feet.

That's why I wear white socks, so I don't get funky feet. :) Dark socks seem to make your feet stink more. Maybe it's all in my mind, but I don't stink so. :)

'. . . funk upon you feet.' What a great line. This one is really fun. Thanks for sharing. I'm afraid I lean towards the solid black variety. Boring.
