Sneakers
Oh, the places I’ve been,
I have traveled far
I’ve been torn and worn,
You can see my scars
Upon hillsides, through groves
I have travelled
I have scampered and hiked
Upon rock and gravel
Golden fields I have seen,
Through grass I have trod
My rubber soles
Stepped on dry sod
Through crowded halls,
I have quickly scurried
Passing shoe after shoe,
In a great hurry
Inside on a glossy, wooden floor,
I have grooved and pranced
My tongue did fly,
As I awkwardly danced
Although I have scuffs,
And rips, and tears
My strength is not gone
I’ll go everywhere
Until my laces fray,
And my rubber wears through
I’ll continue to go,
As sneakers do
