Heels

I have a pair of heels that I wore once, to a wedding.
And I danced the night away in a Old Skol, so smooth style.

And my feet regetted it.
My pinkie toe was barely spared.

And I wore these shoes to work.
- No dancing, I figured I was safe.
Some walking.
- I thought all would be good.
Flights of stairs.
- Tis part of the agreement.

By the end, well, If my ankles could cry
My pinkie shout and the sides weep.

They would hoot and holler and moan
Something would break
Things would be thrown.

But someone said 'you be chick now'
And so, sans grinning, I bear it.

And today, I wear flats.
:)

-Heres to.....um, um. Music! All kinds, whatever style. Take a minute or two outta your day to Dance. Just a little. (Find a safe space to do it ;) )

You know I was just thinking about looking for your blog this morning. I lost it last night after my computer crashed. Glad you came over. I am adding you to my list. Do not even let me start on high heels. One time I actually had to use hot and cold water on my leg because it hurt so bad I was crying. I wore this fabulous shoe once and it was a couple of sizes smaller (it was on sale and it was HOT pink) and I had to forcibly yank it off my legs and If you see the blood. ehn! I bled all over the place. See me, the shoe maniac! Have a fabulous week men!
