There was an old woman who didn’t live in a shoe-
But, apparently wearing the house kind, was her
favorite thing to do.
.
She had many pairs that she would switch around-
So that no worn out spots would be found.
.
Every once in a while, she had to go out–
Leaving the idea to wear the houseshoes,
to take another route.
.
Other kind of shoes, she did own-
But, the love for them had never grown.
.
Not like the comfortable houseshoes,
that she wore around the house-
No one to deal with, just the retired
spouse.
.
So, on the days that she had to go
out, and take care of business-
She would wear the high heels or flats,
none the less.
.
But, as soon as she got home, she’d
kick them to the closet-
And, quickly for her houseshoes is what
she would get.
.
There was an old woman who didn’t live in a shoe-
But, apparently wearing the house kind, was her
favorite thing to do.
