My Fat Feet Poem by Esther Leclerc

My Fat Feet

Rating: 4.9


They take me where
I wanna go
whether fast
or plodding slow

So short, so wide
six toes seem fair
tho' five each fated
still, people stare

I love my feet
fat tho' they be
I'm quite attached
to them you see

I take them here...
I take them there...
Or rather more,
they take me where

ever it is I
wish to travel
on roads of pitch,
of dust and gravel

When they hurt I
baby them well
Rare is the day
when e'er they smell

Sweet and honest
my sausage toes,
How I love them
fair like the rose

Now to bed I
put these cuties
snuggled up in
fuzzy booties

Goodnight good friends
Sleep well my dears
A new day dawns
tomorrow - Cheers

Right now I'm into finding very wide houseshoes, because my youngest daughter is 8 months pregnant, and her feet are 'out of control.' I call mine shoe boxes, because they are just about as wide as they are long! Like you, tho, they get me where I need to go, and what more could we ask of them? ? Very funny!

Cute one! I tried to think of some funny puns for you, but am sadly defeated. Maybe you could get a job in French vineyard as a grape crusher. -chuck

Feet are appendages that we tend to not think about very much, and never pamper very much, but of course we should. I enjoyed this read. It's amazing what you can write about concerning feet! . I wrote a poem called My Shoes, which you might like to peruse if you have the time, it's a fun one. Love Ernestine XXX

Cute, jolly, and funny, with a clear message about self-love and self-acceptance (I think!) . A lovely read. Warm regards, Gina.

To pen a poem about your feet Is really an amazing feat But oh the truth do really tell Like anyone, they often smell And wearing footwear in your bed Must mystify your probing tread When hubby searches for some footsy To only find a hairy tootsy! Take care :) Jack
