Can You Tell A Story In…

It’s Thursday and your new five-word challenge is here. Last week, I wanted to know what you thought about POLITICIANS. This week, I want to know what you think about SHOES. So can you tell a story in five words, using the word SHOES in it somewhere?

Here are your thoughts on POLITICIANS from last week:

Ritu:

Politicians – more harm than good.

A politician ‘thought.’ Don’t lie.

Politicians know everything about nothing.

Deeply Shreded:

Had you really said politician?

Politician, more corrupt less human…

Christine Mallaband-Brown:

All politicians are nice people?

Politicians standing for self glory?

Politicians are all corrupt? Really?

She was a sailing politician!

This politician has orange skin!

A politician ate my hamster!

EDC Writing:

Politician’s speak… where politicians hide.

Paul Mastaglio:

Politicians follow the science, apparently.

Politicians rely on the science.

Politicians know what they’re doing.

I’m a shoe freak, yo!
Sparkly shoes, flip-flops, whatever!
No more platform shoes, unfortunately.
Sensible, but stylish, shoe love!

This is cheating, I know. And not entirely shoe related. But it comes from an old, virtually unknown, song entitled, “What the World needs, is a new pair of socks” …..

What’s the good of love
If you’ve got cold feet?

  An expansion …..
  
  Shoes upon the road below
  Protect me from the snow
  Shoes are made for warmth
  That’s something that I know
  Shoes they make the man
  Socks they make the heat
  Sure, I love my shoes
  But here’s something I’ll repeat
  Love is good for love
  It’s something of a treat
  What’s the good of love
  If you’ve got cold feet?

Women the world over love fashionably high heels because they make a lady look taller. They make women achieve more slender looking legs. It’s a fashion statement which attracts the opposite sex . Models and designer shoe manufacturers suggest that high heels complete the most stunning outfit. The reality is that many women believe all of these facts. However, the reality is that that the bones in our feet are not designed to cope with the severity of stiletto shoes, extremely high wedges and the like. Podiatrists tell women what they don’t want to hear. Believe me I know. Bunions kill!
