Rufus Wainwright
Winter Time in Clogs
I may not be a snob
Do the odd job
But certainly the odd dog
When spending my winter time
In my trusted wooden clogs

Tori Amos
On The Right Hand Side
“Welcome, to the dark side
We can provide fun too
But these spots far and few
Reserved only for two…”
“Yeah, well, if you have coffee too, then count me in!”

On The Left Hand Side
Sunshine, blue skies and fluffy clouds
Very popular, with the flocking crowds
Now singing and chanting out loud
Celebrating the weather gods present
Directly to them from the heavens sent

Unidentified Shiny Object
“Is it a bird?
Is it an aeroplane?
Can it be… Superman?”
“An unidentified shiny object was seen hovering above the tree tops.
So far, we have no knowledge of the nature of it, nor if it will return.”

Pinkiest of Shoes
Shoes shoes shoes
I see the pinkiest of shoes
They really do amuse
My bluest of blues
Do they really defuse…

Pinkiest of Shoes
…I just wonder who’s
Because I also want to choose
The pinkiest of shoes
Because this new mood
I do not want to loose

Wheels on the Bus
Wheels on the bus
May be going around and around
And you can certainly trust
Them to be Earth bound
Carrying you every which way
And before you get to say “hey”
Your destination realized
Yes, you have already arrived

Ode to My Pink Running Shoes for Daily Photo
If there ever was a dress code
Then this little bitty ode
Would be an homage fitting
Because I am not just sitting
Or singing the lazy blues
But moving along
With my shiny new pink running shoes on

Shopping
Gun’s travel log, stardate 10.08.2015, 02.00 PM (GMT +3)
Oh shop-keep, shop-keep?
Can you possibly assist me?
You see, I have all this money
Burning a hole in my pocket
No, I am not just being funny
Even though I ate a lot of chocolate
So pull out the inventory
And soon you will have a story
Of the crazy middle aged lady
Who bought your store empty
It was time to hit the shops. Our first stop was a gallery specializing in leather painted goods such as sandals, wallets, handbags and jewellery. Luckily the shop carried the “slender size 42” (EU size) in stock and I managed to get a pair of sandals into my possession in exchange for a fair amount of Euros. And by the way, I managed to get out of the shop with just one purchase, which in itself, is a record 😉
PS. A woman can never have to many shoes!
Venturing onwards to the shopping streets of many. Browsing, drooling, pondering over the bling blings, shoes – but of course and oh yes, if possible to find one more handbag for my collection of plenty.
Here are a few shops to check out if you are in the vicinity:
And some more…

Pink Suede shoes for Daily Photo
Don’t step on my pink suede shoes
Or I will be singing the blues
Instead of listening to all the boohoos
Just buy me a new pair of shoes
Because I have paid all my dues
And true shoes are my only muse
Don’t step on my pink suede shoes
Or I will be singing the blues
No more excuse
Turn on the news
There is nothing to loose
Except a cheap pair of shoes
