Spike-heeled stilettos
roam the streets in wait.
Red Light District,
in the dark corners of the night.
Shiny leather boots
march defiantly as one.
The world's Red Armies
Unite the Communist front.
Winter pale toes
stomp the season's first fruit.
A silky red wine
born from luscious juice.
Bare Indigenous feet
dance The Brolga with precision.
Dry red dirt
swirling with the movement.
Dorothy's famed shoes
click at the heels.
Ruby Red slippers
Just want to go home.
Swollen ankles - mine,
throb from standing.
Red woollen socks
With a hole in the toe.

Very nice! Lots of red images!
Hello-
I stumbled upon your sight through another blog.
Looks very cool--I'll stop by again soon.

Lovely images of red. I finally did a load of red laundry today--saved it up--don't wear it much.
