Rain Shoes

A fellow tenant asked me,
“Do you think that it will rain?”
She carried an umbrella, so
Her thoughts were very plain.

“I heard it might this afternoon,”
I answered in reply.
“I wore my rain shoes just in case,”
She said, explaining why.

A glance revealed some normal flats,
Not waterproof-appearing,
But maybe older ones to wear
When raindrops might be nearing.

I understood her right away
For I would never chance
A rain-soaked pair of favorite shoes
With warnings in advance.
