Those high-heel times were certainly glory days; the accompanying slink, wiggle and bounce intriguing to most men.
But sensible shoes always win out--in the same way that sensible guys eventually overtake the bad boys.
To this bad boy's lifelong disappointment.
Entertaining read, Lydi!

That was very great description and I believe that you stay young until you decide to be old, some of decide that at an early age others on a certain age,but i still believe that we are all young inside, and that work showed the young girl inside you. I loved this work and enjoyed it :)

Some people are old when they are 35 and some are always young at heart. I like to think I am in the latter category. Thank you so much for the review. Lydi**
I find this very special. Female, young, remembering and quite, quite (at the risk f sounding patronising and heaven forbid that I do) lovely,

this is exactly the picture I have in my head about me later in my years. although, i must confess I hope I will still desire to wear heels ;) and watch out for those mature rainbows, they can be too dashing and breath taking at times. I really loved this one Lydia. You got me hooked on your writing style.

Thanks so much....hey, if I COULD still wear the stilettos, I would! :) Lydi**
"even though i'm way past
the splashing-in-puddles stage of life" - never ! I think you can still splash in the puddles aged 21 !!
I really liked the ingenuity of the shoe metaphor Lydia - letting epiphanies seep in sensible shoes - simply wonderful phrases. You have sexiness oozing out from this one
thanks for sharing this dear Lydia

wiser in that we wear what is most comfortable...at our age we finally get to be ourselves, and if others don't like it? tough...we smile through those mature rainbows....and run, but not in high heels...
love the clouds in this poem.

Running in high heels is what killed my knees to begin with! Thanks for the review, Jacob. Lydi**
I can feel the wisdom in this piece. We get wiser as we get older, seeking comfort and sensibility. I can relate to this! There's something really cool about being comfortable with who we are~
