Female toes are beautiful, Everyone should always take care of them. The yellow is very pretty.

Toes are a fine subject. I wrote a poem about shoulders earlier this week, I think they are often forgotten as well.

My brother always told me my long toe next to the big one meant I was intelligent. I wanted to believe him but he also told me the polio scar (I think it’s polio, the dime-sized scar on your upper arm. Small pox, maybe.) was a poor man’s mark. Those with the mark would be rounded up and executed.

The fact that I believed him about the mark was perhaps my first clue that I wasn’t going to be intelligent. 🙂

In reply to Darrelyn Saloom. Those sound like toenails worthy of a story : )

Toes, eh. That’s so funny. I wrote a story once called Grandpa’s Feet. I don’t even know what happened to it, I wrote it so long ago. The story was inspired by taking my boys (they were 4 and 5 at the time) to visit their grandpa (my father-in-law) in the hospital. He was a retired physician and always wore a suit. So to see him in a hospital gown was a shock. But it was the sight of his thick, yellowed toenails that terrified them both. It never occurred to me to prepare my pre-schoolers for the sight of grandpa’s feet.
