Shoe Lust  

A multitude of Colours
Fabric so divine
That pair that captivate
Simply by design
Leather, cotton, plastic, elastic
Simply fantastic
My jaw drops as shops restock
New season new trend
My foots best friend
Laces, straps both perhaps
The perfect shoe to finish a suit
Wouldn’t be appropriate to wear a boot

Money not an issue to fulfil this lust
Something that protects my feet
How can you not trust

Not talking about boots or sandals either
Talking of those shoes my hearts deceiver
Fabric cant protect my toes
But the design is enough
Dullness to a leather shoe
Only needs a buff  

Such variety I can’t possibly possess them all
But their designs and comfort
Never fail to enthrall
 
Their sturdy nature flat or round
Down to earth, help me to caress the ground
No matter which brand
The price
Or the shop
To miss out on this pair
My addiction won’t stop
Protect my soul
I will not heel
This lust for shoes
Is only to real

I enjoyed the rhythm very much. This was a fun light-hearted poem. Great job! As for my favorite pair...no thanks, I despise footwear of all kinds. I'd rather be barefoot.

Yes, we all search for that perfect pair that feels and looks good to us. We'd do anything to get that perfect pair. Very smart and neat usage of words. Well-written and interpreted. Good Job :)
