a battered sandal
left by the side of the road
a child’s salvation
Kim M. Russell, 2017

My response to Carpe Diem #1333 José’s Sandals
In another Paulo Coelho episode, we have a Christmas tale, ‘Jose’s Sandals’ based on a story written in 1903 by François Coppée and translated from the Portuguese by Margaret Jull Costa. (Source: http://www.beliefnet.com)
