Nike Sneakers

Nike sneakers are the best
They are better than the rest
Beautiful colors
Sexy water-colors
Dressed up with fly sneakers, you have zest

Premium Member Two Sneakers Frayed Jeans Sweatshirt With Hood

two sneakers frayed  jeans sweatshirt with hood
thrown overnight on the floor
waiting lazily just  for 
another chance at glory
and story 
time fame

My Sneakers

My sneakers made me jump high
All the way into the sky
Suddenly, the wind knocked me down
All the way into the ground
That cause the Shi to pass me by

Premium Member Myrtle Wins

Myrtle, the sea turtle
Wore a sports girdle. 
With green sneakers shoes.
She ran a fast race
Won for style first place.
Went viral, millions of views.


Crossed My Mind

The noisy squeaks are just another sign
of sneakers of the running kind
my random thought
again has crossed
the street in my quagmired mind

Premium Member Nothing Left

atop the bench
   mouths open
   tongues yet panting
   sweat-soaked
   disheveled laces
   the sneakers
   had given it their all
     ~ almost died crying

Basketball Shoes

My basketball sneakers could make me fly
In fourth grade I could jump so high
I wasn't the best on the team
But I was in my dream
With those shoes, I swear I could touch the sky.

Premium Member My Sneakers- Shoe Contest

They're old, they're ugly, they're falling apart.

Had them forever, they're part of my heart.

They're comfy and old

And to me, pure gold

And if you throw them out, a fight WILL start.

Premium Member I found the veins!

she explained 
when the blue showed through
the skin
and something made it warm,
maybe akin
to blood

or running in designer sneakers

Ludovico Einaudi's piece
'Experience' is playing

May I have
a slice?

Premium Member rooster on the road

I could never run like this when I was a chick
So saying, the rooster ran down the highway quick
You are wearing sneakers! An old timer said, so great!
Alas, a semi came over the hill fast, sealing the rooster’s fate.

Premium Member Workout

Walking in the local YMCA 
Onyx sneakers ready to slay
Reality red I’ll workout today
Kinda teal tired still I will stay
On the bike and lifting weights
Unisex rooms everyone is great
Thigh muscles cry get in shape

Feet

Feet

My big feet contain 
the best ideas or 
qualities of 
how to deal with 
unrestrained partial, total, and 
complete authority. 
There’s just enough 
skin shed from 
my feet to 
enable my feet to 
fit in my 
extra small sneakers.

Premium Member The Streaker

Cletus O'Toole was a whiz 'mongst streakers

   And the darling of 'exposure'-seekers

      He was a down-right nuisance

         But due to cops' impuissance*

            He raced 'round town in just socks and sneakers

*Inability to act

Premium Member Alone In Fall

swing alone, heavy branch
golden tone, sneakers scranch

in falling…enhancement 
of sprawling-enchantment

leafing deep, Autumn’s rush
two foot leap, noontime hush

At the Store

Needed some sneakers
So went to a store
But nobody shops
In a store anymore.

Salesfolk approached me;
No customers shopped.
Prices were discounted,
Then again chopped.

Left with a purchase – 
A new sneaker pair,
But wonder how long
That same store will be there.

Dilemma

Sneakers or shoes
sometimes I'm confused
what is proper attire
does this event require.

Follow society norms
just to conform
or be kind to my feet
perhaps taking some heat.

So I've chosen informal
not considered as normal
yes, it's sneakers I'll wear
because I really don't care!

Premium Member My Worst Gift

My Worst Gift

My dad’s a lifelong villain
But I’m the one that’s sorry
Cos this year all my presents fell
off the back of a lorry

I didn’t get computer games
Or snazzy hi-tech sneakers
I got a dozen refugees
And six asylum seekers

Premium Member And They'Re Off

And They’re Off

His words
worn sneakers soundlessly
pound the parchment
of life
leaving faint imprint
on passing
flowing
in seemingly effortless
struggle
lost
in the acrid fury
of the starters
pistol.

Premium Member Jungle Scene

Computer noise and tons of toys
And tattered posters hanging low.
Some week-old snacks and laundry stacks
And cluttered closet overflow.

With sneakers, jeans, and magazines
In mountains 'cross the crowded floor.
A bed that's mussed and piles of dust.
They're all behind my bedroom door.

Nike Sneakers

Stop Look Listen!

This Emergency is Dire

I've Perched myself on a Telephone Wire

Crowds have gathered below 

I'm starting to Perspire

I do not want Money or to Be known as Sire

All I Ask to soothe my Psyche

Is a simple pair of sneakers with a swoosh 

And the letters spelled N-I-K-E

For Heaven's Sake, Watch That Rake!!!

he hated fall
leaves do fall
his spirits too
and raking leaves
he hated to do

but one day he
was to learn
that evil rake
your butt he'll burn

he stepped upon
the rake's sharp head
and holed his sneakers
he even bled
but just to add insult
to injury
the handle whipped up
and broke his knee

Premium Member That I Knew Her

I must be fascinating
to meet:
an enigma of style choices,
wild hair, and holy sneakers
a.k.a pre-k teacher

What seals the deal
is all in a facial expression,
the one I make when I am trying
to act serious

My five-year-old student
Taleen captured it perfectly:
shock mixed with horror

Recess!

Premium Member Summer Feet

shodden
                sturdy, protected
     exploring, hiking, discovering
sneakers, sandals, soles, footprints
         strolling, wading, relaxing
              calloused, exposed
                      barefooted
