It is funny how a new dress or suit or fancy new shoes sometimes mark a new beginning. A date possibly, or a job interview. The possibilities are endless.
You nailed using the words with something that got me wondering. This was more like a flash fiction piece. Well done. Now you need to do a follow up piece about this new adventure. Well done .

You did a great job writing this poem with the words supplied! I didn't think anyone could pull off the prompt in such a short poem, but you did it and you did it well. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

This poem, A New Sole, has the required words and finds the double meaning in a person and his/her wardrobe, brought back into a performance state, and ready to step out. Nice.

Gunner,
A pleasant reminder of my time in the military and the importance of successfully achieving a perfect spit shine on the toe of my boots. you incorporated all five words in your two line poem. The second line encapsulates the expectation of a great shine.
Well-done,
Eugene

Hi Gunner Lil!
You ably captured the excitement of a new job adventure in just a few words (from the prompt). Your illustration is paired nicely with your verse.

P.S. Typically I am not a fan of initial caps and/or punctuation for short poems. But in your case, consider adding a period or a long dash after your first line. You can shorten "will begin" to "begins," if the contest administrators will not penalize you for doing the same (-;

"The magic of the shine on my black shoes excited me
A new adventure will begin soon"
Great use of the words that were given for this contest. What a great idea to start a new job with a new pair of shoes.

Congratulations on placing the contest, GL. I enjoyed you
poem. I Iiked how you wrote such a succinct entry. Your image
choice paired perfectly with the required words. Your words were
descriptive and well thought out. I could see an individual with
those new black shoes ready to take on the world.
Thanks for sharing, Jan

I don't how long this was supposed to be, but you did a really good job using the required words with the two sentences you have written. Great imagery from the art work you chose. Best wishes in the contest. Teri
