A Bow

It was just a bow

A blue patent bow

Disengaged its self

from her shoe

Disappearing into

The dark dank sewer,

I yanked at the other bow

There the shoes match now,

Kept the bow twenty years

In a box

With all sorts

Of paraphernalia.

Memories.

I thought it explained it's self, that the bow disengaged it's self and disappeared down the sewer, obviously not.
It was just a true event that happened 24 years ago one day when I took my granddaughter out for a walk.

Very interesting. I'm really hoping the child's foot wasn't still in the shoe, because I'm not quite sure what 'went down the sewer' - the bow, the shoe or the kid - or all three.
