Ode to Tennis Shoes

Well here I sit with broken ankle
Got my feet caught in a tangle
One went left and one went right
I went down as if I were in a fight
Had to have surgery with plates and pins
Inserted in my bones so I could mend
While I'm healing I have lots of time
To think about the shoes I'll find
Ones that do not have open toes
To make me fall and bust my nose
Now when I get dressed to go to church
Through my closet I will search
No sandals or high heels will you find
On me wearing at any time
No the only shoes that I will wear
Are Tennis Shoes with special care
