Me and My Boots
 
Got me some new patton boots, so shiny,
Smooth and soft like a babies hiney.

When I slip them on to wear,
Ya can't deny we're quite a pair.

We clog, shuffle and kick our heals,
Till my feet pain with squeal.

We have traveled down back trails,
Climbed some hills and spun some tales.

Now I hold my boots to cheek,
They are wrinkled, soles are weak.

My poor old boots have given out,
Life is short, there is no doubt.

The memories I have are the best,
But now I shelve them down to rest.

Creatures of comfort, we are. It's hard to part with old faithful friends. Still, you made it into a happy/sad poem! The first 2 lines are so cute that it would be hard not to continue reading.

Climbed some hills and spun some tales.

If you climed hills in those boots,
no wonder your feet are tired. LOL

That's what happens to boots and leather, that's what happens to our skin. Simple, effective and sounds so true.
