New winter boots

ready to brave the storms

fake dead animal rising from their depths

a warning to wandering acrylics or polymids

the woods are not safe for the likes of you,

when it’s new boot hunting season.

My new Sorel boots- found in the 50% off rack.  (Probably because of the fake fur tops?)  My last Sorels I purchased in 1986, but when DH painted the front door in the garage this summer, he re-coloured them for me into ‘red-pink spray’.  Time for an update, I think.  The old ones don’t owe me anything!  I confess, I am contemplating taking the poodle clippers to the overgrowth, though…

  1. Use the “overgrowth” to stuff some hand-made gloves, methinks.
