The ground beneath our feet

The ground beneath our feet and the sky above our heads.

My curiosity was aroused by this flattened shoe, stuck in the mud.

Why is it here?
Who did it belong to?
How far has it walked and what kind of journey did the owner have?
Was this a tip once upon a time?

It is now a clearing in the woods-beneath the sky, below the hills, with the ground beneath our feet. which we sometimes take for granted.
