SHELDON SHOES

Sheldon Shoes has a loose tongue,

And can be a real heel.

He’s always coming untied.

His support is less than ideal.

He’s tough as leather and steel toed,

But he has a synthetic sole.

He Loafers around all day,

While his Mules go for a stroll.

He likes to Sneaker around,

And Slippers out the back door.

Every day he does his Pumps,

Before his Flats hit the floor.

If he doesn’t get enough fresh air,

He starts to smell like rotten cheese.

Sometimes he comes completely unglued,

And goes flapping in the breeze.

He Clogs up dancing routines,

And commits Moccasins.

He’ll Saddle up to Oxford,

And  trade Wingtips for Fins.

He likes jam with his Jelly’s.

He wears a Sandal suit.

Every night he goes to Stiletto’s,

Where he always gets the Boot.
