The End of the Pier

That place over there
Socks are required
They don't mind about age
Or the wealth you've acquired
Whether you're young
Or if you're retired
There's only one rule
And that's socks are required

There's no outlawed design
They can be thick or thin
As for the length
Where to begin?
Just cover your ankles
Or halfway up the shin
But you can't be barefooted
If you want to get in

And now you are there
Are you feeling inspired?
Was it something you hoped for?
All you desired?
You might never know
That I stopped and enquired
I'm just glad you remembered
Socks are required
