I bought a pair of shoes, not too long ago-
Some folks call them “sneakers"-
I prefer to call them “squeakers.”
because they "squish and squawk" from heel to toe

Yes, it can be annoying-
To those with whom I work-
Walking down the hallway,
causing heads to turn, and shirk.

Reactions are amusing-
but mostly a lot of fun-
The only disadvantage is-
I can’t sneak up on anyone.
