David Smith Poet Grook

Wear Your Odd Socks With Pride

Wear your odd socks with pride,
No need for them to, in your gumboots hide,
Of funny looks, I don't give a darn,
As I can spin a good yarn.

Is it better to have odd socks, 
Or no socks?
That is the question,
You should be asking about your odd sock situation.

Is it worth disrupting your household,
And putting hugs on hold,
All for fear of a laugh at your expense
Which makes no sense,
When the odds are high
That others too, will have a pair of odd socks to deny.
 
I wear my odd socks with pride,
As I see no need to hide,
My socks are odd,
When I look around
And see so many odd things that still astound.
