Oh, the sound of pitter - pat.
Some paths lead me forward
And some leave me confused.
Destinations that have brought me joy
and journeys that left me feeling used.
I choose these streets and avenues
Whether skipping and whistling
or singing the blues.
This reminds me,
I need some new shoes!

Flash Fiction Friday
Every Friday, I compose a short story of 55 words - no more, no less.
If you want to join in the fun and games and give it a try...
post your story and report to the boss.
G-Man!

this is excellent... and what girl doesn't need new shoes, heee heee heee
LOL! Life's journey is such that the shoes get worn out very often. But worn shoes are also a soothing reminder that we have been moving and not stagnated and rotted in one place.
Great 55ve !
If you are wearing Air Jordans
Or shoes from the king
It's what's in you, not on you
Gives your step all the spring
Wow, what a great short story...and I would agree who doesn't need "new shoes?"

Liquid...Thank You so much for this whimsical 55. You are like a breath of fresh air...
Thanks for visiting, and have a Great Week-End...Galen
Suzanne, I hope every road you take gets you where you want to be. :D
Have a great weekend, my dear!
Always angling for the new shoes, I swear!
Ah well, as long as you've worn them out in the pursuit of good and vital things I won't begrudge you a new pair.
Besides, I love what they do for your calves. ;)
That's very good! It's 55 great words!
How cool is that!? Thanks for visiting please come again! Are you from the Meridian in Emmy Lou Harris's song "Red Dirt Girl"?
Love your play list. jeNN
Most excellent! Bonus points for reminding me that I do indeed need new sneakers. ;-)
Hi Liquid,
I nominated you for a real person award. See details on my blog. :)
i think i understand what "55's" are now...... i found some cowboy boots for sale on the internet......
I just spent the day feeling used. Your poem made me smile.
Ah, choosing the road...and still feeing used. Know the feeling! I'm off for new shoes, too!
A woman can never have enough shoes! LOL
Love your 55!
Very nicely done, Liquid. It's not the destination but the fellow travelers we meet along the way. That, and getting tips about where to find the coolest shoes.
