“At long last, the rightful claimant has come hither; To reunite the left to the right slipper,” the poem on Tuesday said.
“A happy end, for Pamela’s tale; Not much like Cinderella’s, but elsewise the same. Not a lost slipper, but friendship found. Another merry story, made on Baguio’s ground,” it continued.
The tale of the lost shoe was first reported by the Baguio City Public Order and Safety Division on Monday.
The lost-and-found post was formatted as a poem, which delighted many social media users who drew parallels to the fairy tale of Cinderella.

“A lone sole seeks its missing mate, A crimson kiss upon its fate. Four inches high, a daring stride. Size forty-one, where could it hide?” it asked.
“Found by our enforcers, a watchful eye; At the O-shaped bridge, beneath the sky; Though knocking doors, a tedious quest; A quicker path, we put to the test,” said the post.
