Velcro Shoes

I hardly ever wear shoes that tie.
My wife will tell you, I never lie.
Velcro shoes are my game.
I love them without shame.
If they stopped making them, I would cry.

You have a nice limerick poem for SKAT's contest. Just make one correction in your first line: Your word "where" should be "wear". Everything else looks fine.
