Little Red Shoes ~

Red shoes out of step in a busy street

Flowers in a field of continental quilt
Soon people stop to look or stare
After all, fashion is a serious affair

Two colors or more will make a flag
But only Red can stand out in a crowd
Without the media luna or a white star
These shoes are claiming freedom out loud

Happy owner walks with pride
Nonchalant, with none to hide
Crossing the crowded urban street
Those shoes will surely not retreat
Unlike images that went their unknown way
Me and my Red shoes will never stray
