I would be Daddy’s favorite shoes.
Needed.
Selected.
Fitted.
Supportive.
Durable.
Functional.
Tasteful.
Appealing.
He’d wear me in the rain, on purpose
Because quality weathers most everything.
He’d wipe away the muck,
Polish me, as necessary;
And, put me away
In a warm, safe place
Until needed, again.
I would wait…
Right there!
Knowing how nice it is
To be His favorite anything, at all.

lorencinoabout 16 years ago<br><br>I read this and read it and knew: I was in the presence of that light, ethereal giver of joy, a poet in control of her lines. <br><br>
I was racing through those single-word lines when I realized the punctuation after each word was a period inviting me to slow down and experience the richness to be had from savouring each line and experiencing the cumulation of the lines more strongly because each line was so bare in appearance, though loaded in significance.<br><br>
By the end of the poem, having experienced the glow of a cared-for woman, one is left with a deepened appreciation of the qualities of a caring man.<br><br>
The poet paints a compellingly vivid picture, allowing one to exist comfortably in the world described and that implied, simultaneously.<br><br>
champagne1982about 16 years agoI thought I'd be annoyed by the line breaks in S1. I'm not, you draw us down that list until we realize how it's possible to neglect people we love. Mentioned on the New Poems Review thread in Literotica's Poetry Feedback and Discussion Forum.
LeBrozabout 16 years agoInteresting, the way you compliment yourself when you say, "
Because quality weathers most everything."
