My Favorite Shoes

My Favorite Shoes


My favorite shoes are five and three.
They tie themselves and talk.
They smile when I put them on
And giggle when I walk.
They greet me in the morning
And wrap tightly to my feet.
I walk them to their beds at night
Before they go to sleep.
They force me to walk rather slow
And cost me quite a lot,
But every day I'm more in love
With these shoes that I've got.



I long to be like my children in some way almost every day. What better way to travel than scrambling to cling to His feet with an eager heart and a giddy, trusting smile. Mathew 19:13-15, Proverbs 16:9
