Inspired by Don

Now I have turned 42,

I seriously have lost a shoe

It’s been on my foot all summer through

It was brand new but now it’s a mystery

Or maybe become a part of history

I’ve searched high and low

But just do not know

What has happened to my shoe???

PS...the pic is a brilliant card I got from my friend. Made me laugh out loud 😂😂😂...she wrote inside that maybe I’d have to blow out the candles with a hair dryer this year😂😂😂

Thank you so much for all your birthday messages! I had a lovely day and even paddled my feet in the sea!!!! 🌊

I found my long lost specs

On my head where they'd been put.

I wondered if you'd looked if your shoe

Was still left it on your foot?

If only that were true

I could save pennies buying a new

Shoe to slip upon my foot

But the problem is there

One doesn’t have a shoe to wear

And I don’t want to scare

The other shoppers off

Looking a bit random

As my feet won’t be in tandem

As one will be in sandal

And the other one will be...

Well, random!

in reply to madonbrew

I can see how difficult

That is going to be.

If you are good at losing them

Next time just buy three.

I love that Don!!! Do you think they’ll let me buy a third one? Now you pose me a new issue...do I buy a spare right or left shoe? 👞

That’s a great pic Dee and very funny. A hairdryer sounds like a plan.

Your poem was excellent, thank you. Glad you had a lovely birthday. Xxx🥰😘🌈

I wonder if she also had an ulterior message in it too....meaning I now have too many candles to blow out!! 😂😂😂

Well, I truly have lost a shoe and it’s so annoying because they’re the shoes I wear all the time!!! Hmm, just have to wear my winter shoes with socks. Doesn’t feel quite cold enough for that yet but I may have no choice! 🤣🤣🤣 Although I also got some cool socks that say ‘Nap Queen’ on them...describes me perfectly!

Never! Lol. 😂😂😂

I hope your shoe turns up Dee. Wherever could it be? Well if you knew that you’d have found it! 😂😃xxxx

madonbrew in reply to sassy59

😂😂😂...that’s the type of thing I’d probably come out with! Haha...even my parents have Ben looking for it! We’ve looked in the garden, my campervan, my little summer house. It’s nowhere to be found! 🤷‍♀️ 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Got you and Don to contend with in this poem writing thing!!! Not sure I’ll be able to keep up with the two of you...especially with only one shoe!

Well I was wondering who Ben was?! Hilarious! 😂😂😂

madonbrew profile image
madonbrew in reply to sassy59

I am actually seriously laughing out loud at this random conversation!!!

I keep him...Ben, hidden in the cupboard and only let him out when it’s safe! 😂😂😂

in reply to madonbrew

Is Ben a cross-dresser with only one shoe? 😉

Thats another good one to keep. Some of these cards are worth keeping, so appropriate for the current state of affairs.

It’s perfect isn’t it for now! Did make me laugh! 😊

What a great card. I hope you find your shoe. I’ve seen ‘pairs’ of socks that are actually three socks. Maybe for people who always lose a sock. Perhaps someone should make pairs of shoes in threes too 👟 👞 👠

madonbrew in reply to HungryHufflepuff

😂😂😂...I have some of those socks!!! My friend got them for me...what was she trying to say? 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you! Nope, my shoe is still lost!! 😕 I’m hoping I didn’t accidentally gather it up with some rubbish and put it in the bin 😳

watergazer in reply to madonbrew

I can easily do that Put my engagement and wedding ring in the oven once! Put my watch in the bin ! Have a nice day x

madonbrew in reply to watergazer

That’s quite something...managing to put your engagement and wedding ring in the oven !!!! We’re they tasty?

watergazer in reply to madonbrew

Fortunately the oven wasn’t on 😜

Tip.. if staying at a hotel and are prone like a lot of us to leaving stuff in the safe( passport, wallet, cash etc), put one shoe in at night which will ensure you definitely open it in the morning.

Stay safe...👍👍

Pretend you don't care about the shoe and look for something else. The shoe will get huffy and turn up! Works for me. (Sometimes!) 🤣

madonbrew profile image
madonbrew in reply to Karenanne61

Hmm, I’m trying...but it’s still not turned up! I think it’s just gone missing!

Izb1 in reply to madonbrew

Writing course, that sounds interesting, was it an online course?

I once tried to put the kettle in the fridge, luckily it wouldnt fit, but did make me wonder if I was losing my marbles ha! x
