Some Faces, Mostly Feet

 Oh, how I love pictures of feet!  I do!  I love pictures of my babies' feet.  I love pictures of their feet now.  I love pictures of my own feet.

Pictures of feet can tell a story.

This week at I Heart Faces is a non-competition week, and they are focusing on feet (you probably could have guessed that).  Fun!  They are also raising awareness for an organization that does some good for others' feet.  Soles 4 Souls is a charity that collects shoes and gives them away to those who need them.  They do this in countries all over the world, with the help of both companies and individuals who donate shoes.  They are helping to make many someones' stories a little better.

 

Tucked knees,

Peeping toes.

Big shoes to fill,

But toes will grow.

Toes in water

Get all pruney;

Toes on land

Sometimes get spoony.

Toes and feet

Have things to do-

Sometimes bare,

Sometimes with shoes.

Wrapped up toes

Don't have much fun.

Needles and toes

Don't get along!

(Take it from me;

I'll skip the pic,

But if you're curious

Give a click.)

But once they heal

They like the sand.

They show off tricks

Like handstands.

(Well, maybe that

Is the hands' little trick,

But it's my poem

So the words will stick.)

An auntie's toes

Play hide and seek.

Toes chase balls

Around the beach.

 

 

Toes are good for a lot of things,

Useful digits on our feet.

Take pictures of the ones around you;

It will be a treasure sweet.

 

 

Head on over to I Heart Faces for some more wonderful pictures of feet!

Wow look at all those cute feet! Although I think I'll pass on the needles and toes too. :)

Christina.

Christina, Christina, Christina.

YOU have cute feet.

I have really, seriously ugly feet.

Truly.

I shall forgive you because you too avoid house cleaning AND because you're a fabulous poet.

But we can never wear sandals together. :)

I didn't know you had the poetry gene - I'm envious! And all of those photos are adorable, my favorite is the line of feet against the wall, very evocative!

Great post! I remember when Harper was born, I kept counting her toes to make sure she had 10. I kept doing it, almost obsessively, for probably a month or two - just to make sure she hadn't lost one. I was a little crazy those first few months...
