It was time for the
Annual Sock Drawer Conference. Halloween
was over, and now it was time to settle down to business. Mated socks sorted out the un-mated. Static held them all together.
New socks had joined
the Drawer, with holidays ahead. Some
Turkey Socks and many new Christmas socks had been welcomed, mantled labels
removed. Again, language was limited to
their country of origin. “Made in China,
50% cotton and 45% polyester, with 5% spandex!”
The Sock Drawer philosophy needed to be explained.

The mantra of the
Drawer was to serve the Wearer, pure and simple. No matter the inclement weather or the racing around the owner might do, the Socks were there to assist tractor, the shoes who
propelled the Wearer to the desired destiny.
As a precursor to the meeting, the
Sock Drawer sang its national anthem.
“Heel and cuff, instep and toe. We welcome you to our Land. Gusset and heel, tightly wove. Cotton or whatever. The threads of socks that have gone before, join us in homage to you with our voice. Static and lint all abound, We welcome you to our Land.” ***

With that, the Sage
Surgical Sock with chevron rubber footing cleared its throat, pounding the stump of a pencil, and announced, “Let
us begin.”
*** Sung
to the tune of “Oh, Tannenbaum”.
