Sock it to me Baby He strut like a proud peacock in his crocs Green they were, worn with lime shocking pink socks He asked for a date I said "no way mate" "Only because I have no matching frocks." He said he just didn't care what frock I wore 'Cause he'd got crocs of many colours in store "A lady in red “ I answered in jest Suspecting that he was aiming to score. Both of us went on the date dressed in red "You must be clothed for a bet" someone said My dates crocs and socks Gave out vibrant shocks 'Cause all he wore matched, down to boxers and vest. I answered "yes and it's for charity" And we raised loads to put in the kitty My date turned out great We're now best of mates His socks and crocs are my flitty ditty. “Sock it to me baby, come hold me tight Your crocs so excite me, love me tonight.” 8th June 2021

That is a wonderful poem. I do not own any crocs, but I am known to wear socks with sandals. Which gives away my German heritage, so I am told. Kind wishes, Kai

I showed this to a prominent literary critic, who has 2 PhD's, one from Harvard, the other from Oxford, and she said, 'What the Frock?!' lol. ~ gw
