Issue With My Shoe

Rating: 4.5


Background- Since last few years i am not able to keep my shoe lace tied, they keep on untying and then i thought i should take up the issue....


dear o dear shoe
do we have an issue

u rest there on the stand
with a lovely snout on your face
u give me comfort to stand
and participate in the rat race

i keep you shining night and day
you keep me walking all the way
but then why why on the god's name
u keep on untying my lace

for O dear shoe the lace is not to keep you in bounds
its only to keep me agile as a hound
i beg to you to show mercy and allow me to tie the lace
for, for i don't wanna fall flat on my face

but then i remembered what my ma use to say
if u wanna really undesrtand others point of view, step into their shoe
well here i am in my shoes shoe to understand the real issue

Shoe's point of view

i bear you load from toe to heel
but did u ever care what i feel
you shine me only once in a day
yet you keep on walking in mud and clay
you carry on stepping into me with great elan
yet you dare to question about my lace plan
each time the lace unties u bend down to look at me
and dear o dear tarveller of the world,
i promise you one thing
you will never fall on your face because of untied lace
you may fall, for you were too upright to notice an untied lace
