Whose Shoes?
Whose shoes have trod here
from leafy lane
to clattering cobblestones
to cement sidewalk?
Whose shoes, from moccasins
to brogans to boots,
shoes through the ages?
And now, your shoes, too!
from leafy lane
to clattering cobblestones
to cement sidewalk?
Whose shoes, from moccasins
to brogans to boots,
shoes through the ages?
And now, your shoes, too!
