shoe-shine kit

where did she put the shoe-shine kit ...
have not felt the goo, brush and polish cloth in many a day

you too? I'm cracking in all the wrong places ...

you are lucky to know what that feels like
I have only heard about it

one things for sure - we get dingier and duller every day ...

are you listening you - you person you ...

tiny feet shoes

how does a pair of shoes
that fit two tiny little feet
before they learn to walk
ever bear their wearer's mark

never will be scuffed
no worried lines of wear
soles never feel the floor
never lose their shine

wrapped from heel to toe
kept safe and dry and warm
between bathing and loves kisses
they are free to stretch and grow

one must look inside the shoe
where the tiny stamp is pressed
the warmth and growth within
will leave the wearer's mark
