Sole Departed!
written by: Ger White
Their marriage was truly meant to last
To walk together through any storm
To move as one in rhythms undone
Where did it all go wrong?
Rain fell down in torrents that year
“Sole” started to move away
With every pace in that daily rain
Relationships started to fray
“My sole was never meant for this”
Mrs Right started to hiss
“Well, I was never born for cold”
Mr Left joined in the scold
And so they parted – it could not be
Sole from leather had to flee
Another pair of shoes in the bin
Never to share a foot again
