With Mother's Day nearly upon me, I got this great inspiration of a "poem" of sorts at 1:00 in the morning.  You now, that time  on a work night when a normal, sane person would be sleeping!  Instead, I was staring the clock down and fondly remembering this pair of pastel patchwork patterned pumps that my Mom bought herself when I was maybe 6 years old.  My Mom is the great outdoors person that we lovingly call "Susie Nature", so while pumps in the 60's were the norm (except for on my Mom), I don't remember her wearing this pair of shoes more than once in my life.  But yet, she does still have them nearly 5 decades later and her final wish is to be buried with those fabulous patchwork pumps with the matching purse!  In honor of her and of the many fond memories I have due to her (and the memories yet to come), I would like to honor her with my version of those FABULOUS shoes!
