There's an eastern wind a blowing across the mighty sea. I'm chilled to the bone, no warmth left in me. It's been here way to long time for it to leave. My sun will return one day all I have to do is believe.
I was walking down a strange road I've never been before. It seemed kind of funny I thought I passed a familiar store. I stopped and stood and stared moved to the door went in. And walked into what felt as familiar as a friend.
Getting dressed this morning I put on a pair of shoes. Funny out of all the pairs it is this one that I choose. Love the feel of them upon my feet as comfy as a glove. As we touched soul to soul I knew surely this was love.

Hi, Happygolucky4u, And walked into what felt as familiar as a friend... Life is full of magical moments waiting to be explored - whether it be with shoes...as comfy as a glove, ruby slippers, or a heart-shaped balloon. ...all I have to do is believe...

Hi Happy
Despite you being chilled to the bone, there is a comforting warmth in this tale. There is so much comfort in a favourite pair of especially well fitting shoes.
Thank you Wayne for resurrecting this old poem. It is one of my favorites to see it was a very nice surprise. I really wish to once more find my comfortable pair of shoes. It seems the world no longer cherish the leathers and have turned to plastic. Once more thank you kind sir
