These old boots

These old boots have seen some miles
Even though I haven’t worn them in a while
They are just like an old friend to me
When I put them on, it was meant to be

Just today, I dug them out first time in forever
They had that smell I love, of worn leather
I would wear them each and every day
That one pair I loved I have to say

They are getting so worn and really tattered
They still have life and that is what matters
Whenever I pull on these boots, I always smile
Yes these old boots have seen the miles
Pictures or there's no proof.....

Just kidding. Your writing says enough to know they exist.😉

I used to have some favorites like that, but when it comes to hoodies, mmmm, so comfortable I'm literally going to wear them out.😌

I'm beyond pleased to see you have some writing skills, buddy; poetic at that.😊
@MoonlightLullaby I try to see beauty in every place I visit. Might be something as small as a leaf or as big as a mountain.
@Sojournersoul It's always there, just waiting to be found, even in the most unlikely places. The little things can end up being big things to me!
@MoonlightLullaby me too. Nature is amazing.
I have some boots like that. I'll probably never wear them again but I can't throw them away.
@Spoiledbrat hard when you find that pair
My favorite old boots i just recently got resoled. Just not ready to let them go yet
@Bexsy these are staying with me too

Boots, shirts, trousers, sneakers... do guys earn some sort of Guy Points from wearing something until it rots offs them??

Ah well, one of life's great mysteries, I suppose.

@newjaninev2 It's about comfort and has zero to do with style... comfort for not just the body, but the soul. Certain articles of clothing/footwear have been with me forever and so too have the memories attached to those items.

My "work" boots, a very old pair of walking shoes, a cardigan sweater my daughter bought me, and a ragged old sweatshirt my ex bought me are my memory keepers.

@Ontheroad It sounds like I need to take you shopping! (that's one of my super-powers)

@newjaninev2 Let's go! But, hands off my comfy stuff😁
Where to then in your worn boots? Time to break them back in.
@PoetryNEmotion time to walk some more miles.
