Join me today for 5 Minute Friday with The Gypsy Mama where we write for five minutes on a given topic. No editing. No criticism. No worry. Today’s topic is: New
I slid my feet in one at a time – into those polished, shiny new shoes, and my countenance became shiny, too. So I walked around standing high and tall. Those polished, shiny shoes made me new.
My head got too heavy as I held it up high, so there it fell. I leaned forward, and trip, trip, trip my polished, shiny, new shoes splashed in a puddle now stained with the look of old.
Now if only I get a new pair of polished, shiny shoes will all of these troubles fade away?
So off I prance on my toes holding my stained, muddy, old shoes in my hand. Off to find the next pair to make me new again.
