Jo Mykle Hofseth Poet Free verse

You Should Have Walked In My Shoes

You should have walked in my shoes

You would have felt joy
You would have felt sorrow
You might have been bored; now and then
You should have walked in my shoes

Neck hair risen, toes curled
Knees bent; hands outreached
Cold and tired; warm and awake
You should have walked in my shoes

You should have seen what I have seen
You should have felt what I have felt
You should have known what I know
You should have walked in my shoes

I have many shoes
Shoes stored away
Spring, summer, autumn and winter shoes
You should have walked in my sandals
