Worn With Pride
I shan’t be challenged by your shine
Nor made to feel the weaker
No dress shoe ever took the place
Of a family member’s sneaker
You may be worn to special places
And too, to gala events
But when it comes to relaxing times
I know with whom it’s spent
With me, with me, I’m always there
For comfort and for style
When needed to compete in races
I’m there for every mile
I withstand the test of time
As I evolve each year
But shoes can be so closet kept
While sneakers stay out here
So let me tell you here and now
Though I may have a rubber soul
Shoes be gone, you’re so passé
For sneakers have control
