Mum's High Heels

Racing to the wardrobe,
On the shoe shelf
3 to 4 inches off the ground
A beautiful tan colour, felt rough, like leather
Putting them on felt majestic
Click clack click clack
On the red carpet,
Stopping for photos at my imaginary movie premier
I do this every day after kindergarten
Oh no stomping from the stairs
Oh no I can’t let anyone see the shoes
Quick! Under Mum's pillow!
It is Nicola my bossy sister
She comes into to my parent’s bed and lies on the pillow
Nooo I am too late, she has found the shoes
She screams out to mum
I haven’t played with them since
