The Red Shoes (1948 Film)

Daily writing prompt
Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.

I remember watching the film, The Red Shoes on television as a child and being quite scared. The thought of my shoes taking over and taking me where they wanted to go is actually quite horrifying.

Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏

RIP My Wellingtons

Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.

My Wellingtons passed the other day

They had a good life I’m glad to say

The sole had cracked and they began to leak

Sadly they will never become antique

I remember well the day they were bought

Five years ago,I thought then nought,

About how good friends they would be

To my allotment and me,

In every weather,

We were together,

They splurged through mud and claggy clay

And cleaned up nicely the next day,

To  spade and fork  they were a friend

I’m sad that this is now the end.
