Shoes Your Daddy?

Felix at Galletti Brothers Shoe Repair

Dear Boots,
We made it through the winter. But now you’re splintered.
A fond farewell,
Tootsies

Dear Tootsies,
Not so fast, my ten-toed friend. This ain’t the end.
Boots

Boots,
Your soles are shredded. Your suede’s been wetted.
Adieu, adieu.
Le Toots

But Toots,
A cobbler named Felix will give me a remix!
Wilkes Bashford adores him,
And Neiman as well.
Without him, we’d all be stuck in shoe hell.
He’ll pick up, deliver — new soles in two days.
Cash, check, or credit, just so’s you pays.
Faithfully,
Bootsies

Oh, Bootsies, my Bootsies,
What very good news!
You just made my day, ’cuz your suede had the blues.
