The twins much travelled pair
Travelled far and wide, every nooks
Every possible ways over this land, sea and air
Took them on flights countless times
Loving it, bored to death of the delays
Endless waiting, listened to the airport bells chimed
Took them to sea on many occasions
Tasted salty water that washed over their faces
They saw valleys, hills of waves tested their endurance
Felt the rough edges of the stones
Cobbles and rocks hurting the soles
Palaces, historical places took pictures by the tons
They had trodden ticklish snow
The soft grass crunching fallen leaves
Wondered what else to do, what else to know
Through the years our association
Remained warm and cordial, loving in fact
Till the rubber soles truly worn out by friction
Though many visits to the cobbler
It's time to change to a new pair of shoes
Many thanks for your services, it's a pleasure to be together
Somewhere a guy will wear
And take a liking to my pair of twins
And to give them a home, give love and care
