Clean and sharp,

Neat and comfortable,

Piece of art,

A fun double,

Stripe of red,

Stripe of pink,

Vibrancy’s fed,

Skaters rink,

Steady and swift,

Poised and presice,

Footwork a gift,

Attached to a knife,

Cutting the surface,

Slicing the cold,

Spinning with purpose,

Dots of gold,

Shine of victory,

White of grace,

Rims of blue,

Tied and laced,

Practice makes perfect,

These shoes are hers,

They do good service,

Scores they lure,

Pretty is nice,

Cool is refreshing,

Roll the dice,

Never depressing,

Always a show,

Never let down,

The place they sow,

Thanks for the crown,

Sprinkled with petals,

A scarlet victory,

Like drops of snow,

Unforgettable memory,

If only feet didn’t grow,

She’d wear them for life,

They gave her a win,

An easy glide,

The power within,

A small pair,

That led her through,

—Precious shoe wear,

If only they knew,

Behind the clean,

Lies the inside of struggle,

Shredded black so mean,

A shade of trouble,

Never ending stress,

Tide with a ribbon,

But it looks fresh,

So nothing is hidden.
