Gumshoe

The best kind of gum is bubble,
Though chewing gum will do,
But the worst gum is the kind of gum
That’s sticking to my shoe.

    Hey, man! You have ruined my night, cuz I was gonna stay up drinking coffee writing a sonnet about gum and shoes! LOL It's weird, seriously, maybe I read this and that's why I wrote my shoe poem. That is soooo weird, dude. Geez. I don't remember reading it, but then again I don't remember what I had for lunch today....
    A nice one, you show how it oughta be done.

    (smiles) I love this. Even though gum on my shoe is annoying I prefer that to gum in my hair. Thanks for commenting on my poem and for this little chuckle. DD
