school shoes


your school shoes,
normally shiny with polish,
are dull
from a hard day
of work at school.
Think of all the place
they have been.
Looking closely
you'll see a stain,
made by something you remember.
with their tongues lolling
you put them to bed
but the memories they bring back live on.
