These Shoes Are Made for Walking
By: Soham Roy
(inspired from a Writer’s Notebook entry)
My shoes are muddy, wet, and dirty
They are a size six
They do not last long
They are the only pair I wear
They are sneakers
They are wide
These shoes have taken me to places
Into the Taj Mahal
On the Great Wall of China
Inside the pyramids of Egypt
These shoes have taken me to victories
These shoes have sat on a shelf
These shoes are mine
