Haiku (one single impression) - Change

This is my haiku for this week's prompt from One Single Impression - thanks for continuing the weekly haiku community! And to Jennifer (premiere sister o' mine) and Susan, thanks for many moons of providing One Deep Breath.

This week's prompt - Change. It was a fun one.

Grey clouds and grey streets
My tired old monochrome life
But I’ve bought red shoes...

Oh, there's nothing like a pair of red shoes to encourage energy and smiles! I frequently write about them (and wear them). Great haiku!

Stepping into that gray and making it something else! That's the idea.

God bless.

Ruby slippers?
They are bound to bring light and excitement in your life.

I loved this and you imagery it evokes. I wished I lived close enough to hear you speak at your church. You sister always is an inspiration to me.
