Scantily Shod

You may feel my thinking is odd

of footwear in which you might plod;

podiatric scandals,

those cheap rubber sandals ~

you won’t catch me scantily shod!

Great message in your poem. Nice work!

Thank you, Patrick!

Are you insane woman? Who doesn't love flip flops and all that jazz?! :)

[Rita L. Sev]

I don't. Hated them as a kid (that damn thong between the toes!) and after years of foot problems, they are the last thing I would ever put on my feet! :) See, I told you you'd think I was odd! :)

[Frieda P]

Oi! You sound like my mother! haha ;)

[Rita L. Sev]

Isn't the flip flop the official state shoe of New Jersey? ;)

Hey ms smartypants, you're right across the border. :P

and i think there is more here, than a poem about sandals...

i protect my feet wherever they go...i protect my heart the same way....you won't see through me.

It's a delicate balance, what we allow to be exposed and what we hold close... As for feet, mine are about 30 years older than I am, so I am quite over-protective! Thank you, Jacob!
