In my childhood I used to wear
the canvass shoes being it soft.
Once parents bought leather boot
which I wanted to get rid off.
My shoes were torn very fast
it would go long, parents thought.
But I felt pinches walking in it
as the pair was heavy and hard.
For getting the new pair of shoes
a longer period I had to wait;
so hided each shoe of the pair
at two different places, separate.
Next day we had to go out
mom could trace only one shoe.
I put on but it was on wrong foot
I wished and same day got new.
Now I wish the shoes I have
must stay longer, seeing the cost.
I may go on world tour in same
and for few years they may last.
