My Eco-Friendly Shoes

I had a Pair of 2 year old, rotten Reebok shoes. It is in a wretched condition. Rainy days my Reebok emit rotten smells. I hate to wear soaxes. Normally I put my shoes in the portico when Iam back from work. Every kid who visit our house had an irresistible thirst to kick my shoes to the corners. While Iam fed up with these monsters I decide to put my shoes in the dark, damp corners of the portico. I place it nicely inbetween the old jars and useless utensils. Few weeks back when I rush to put my legs into the Reebok I felt something touching in my toes. With a shrill I take my legs back. A lovely little frog jumped out, few seconds little frog looked at me and then it leap through the leaves. Few days back I found the same frog in my shoes. Last day I found a Cockroach in my Reebock.Today I found a white lizard. Tomorrow???

i would have kept the shoe aside forever again never ever even thinking of wearing it 'cos of the sheer fear of it being an eco-friendly shoe...

i can bear the stench, the wretched condition, torn ...anything but no frogs, no lizards, cockroach...yikes...i would have freaked out...

Writer, i know blogs are quite flexible and not literature-friendly..can be but not necessarily...

it would really be a treat if you'd actully spend an extra minute rechecking the language,the minor spelling and gramatical mistakes that creep in while we write from the heart directly on to the PC...

just my suggestion ..

*peace !
