The flowers began to welt. Mirrors my heart. I tried standing tall and proud and full of life, but then blow after blow made me begin to shrivel and die. Eventually I won’t even welt and I’ll just be ash.
The little baby as crying because he has a welt on his arm that was hurting him inside. He run and run to his house in order to find his mother and ask her for help. The little kid find her and with a sweet kiss, his mother cured the little kid’s welt.
Anna Pinero
Like all flowers, she would welt a die. She came in the spring, she seemed a totally new person, it was as if she’d never been here when it happened. It was ever so unusual to see a girl of her standard in a place like this, she was magic. Her heart was gold but gold always rusts, she was open minded and new like a baby, but all babies grow old. Like all flowers she will wilt and die.

A welt rose on her arm where she smashed it against the wall while she was trying to put together her new bookcase. She was determined to be independent even if it killed her and from her current experiences with hammer, drill and nails, it might
actually kill her.

Your words are welts on my skin. Every time you look at me, another welt forms. I treasure this welts for they are the only way you touch me. I crave them. I long for them.
The mosquito buzzed away. I watched it go, then turned my attention to the growing welt on my wrist. It was lumping up nicely; the bite was right on top of a blood vessel. I resisted the urge to scratch.
She flinched less now. Her sore body had grown used to the regular strike, and her mind had freed itself from fear. It was off running, trying to find solace as her grandmother struck her with the belt, again and again.
Look at the red marks dented into your skin, grip the bokken’s hilt as you hold it at your side. Look across at your opponent, wooden sword in his own hand. This is work, practice, hardship, way of life.
I’m sick of the word welt. I wish they would have another word. I wish it wasn’t the same word the whole day long. I wish it would give me another opportunity to write. I like this thing. I like writing. I like how you write as much as you can in sixty seconds. It’s not about writing perfectly about welts, or whatever the word is for that day. It’s about writing.

She felt the welt. The pain screamed out. She looked down at her arm and saw the skin, burnt, flaming red. Not only did it hurt, it looked nasty. And gross. Eeew. Why. Why. She didn’t want a welt. She needed to be more careful. Next time she made pancakes.
Ole Monday
She was burned up. It hurt. The fire on her skin was painful. The welt hurt. She looked down to see her skin a flaming red. The welt on her arm was ugly. she wasn’t used to being ugly. She didn’t like being ugly. What was up with that welt? Eeew. She didn’t want it. She needed to be more careful next time she made pancakes.

waiting for the gun to go, and the race to run. Tense, curled, coiled and ready to spring. But nothing lives up to expectations, and she welts when she sees what’s at the end of the finishing line
hi there its me a girl with nothing left. nothing just a thought that someday they will apolize to me.bye

The welt on my leg was enormous. Now how could i possibly wear the outfit that i had planned to wear. it would not be a pretty sight there would be not hiding that disfigure,ment. Oh what was a girl to do?
She looked at herself in the mirror and almost fainted. She did not recognize herself for all the welts on her face and body that were present. She looked like a monster out of a horror movie. How could he do this.
A burgundy blush, a bright red bloom. Right in the cleavage. Into the valley of death he flew. He hit the spot, I hit his spot, on at least two levels. *Ich bin der Welt um ihn*, so bad karma for me, but hey, it must be nice not to have to be a fucking mosquito anymore.
The divots left on him
were enough to make you cringe.
One look,
or one feel in the darkness;
you’d never be able to forget.
Little did you know,
and at the same time, little so did he —
how what was yours, and never again
could only see you and me.
He was hidden away for so long,
like the divots in his back;
and I never really knew
when he would return.
the throwing of the duvet revealed the new day; she coaxed another jet of hot stuff from the swollen pipe and revealed a new sense of self. it wasn’t much to ask her man, that he feigned injury for her sake, but it helped.

I got a welt on my arm when i grazed it against a nylon rope. It was quite painful. But actually, it looked worse than it felt. People who noticed it were intrigued by its colors. A lovely purple hue! Wouldn’t you love to see it?

A welt is a strip of leather, rubber, or plastic that is stitched to the upper and insole of a shoe, as an attach-point for the sole. The space enclosed by the welt is then filled with cork or some other filler material (usually either porous or perforated, for breathability), and the outsole is both cemented and stitched to the welt. This process of making shoes is referred to as Goodyear welt construction, as the machinery used for the process was invented in 1869 by Charles Goodyear, Jr. the son of Charles Goodyear.[1] Shoes with other types of construction may also have welts for finished appearance, but they generally serve little or no structural purpose.
Welt is also the name of the upper part of a stocking. A fabric is knitted separately and machine-sewn to the top of the stocking. Knit in a heavier denier yarn and folded double, the welt gives strength for supporter fastening.
Goodyear welt
The Goodyear welt process is the traditional method for the manufacture of men’s dress shoes, taking its name from the inventor who devised the original machine to replace the earlier completely hand sewn method. The benefit of a dress shoe which is made using the Goodyear welt construction is that the shoe can be resoled repeatedly, giving the shoe a lifespan of years, sometimes even decades. Some claims towards added ventilation have been made as well but there are no proven studies comparing the breathability of different shoe construction methods.
Essentially, the upper part of the dress shoe is shaped over the last and fastened on by sewing a leather, linen or synthetic strip (also known as the “welt”) to the inner and upper sole. As well as using a welt, a thread is used to hold the material firmly together.
The welt forms a cavity which is then filled with a cork material. The final part of the shoe is the sole which is attached to the welt of the shoe by some combination of stitching along the edge of the welt and sole, and a high strength adhesive like contact cement or hide glue. The Goodyear welt is highly regarded for a number of reasons including being relatively waterproof by not allowing water to get into the insole due to the welt-sole construction, the relative ease in which the sole can be replaced, and the fact that the shoe can last up to 20 years or longer depending on the treatment and condition of the upper.
The very nature of this shoe construction means that Goodyear welted dress shoes take much longer to manufacture than cheaper alternatives. Factories commonly hire scores of highly skilled operators to create dress shoes of comfort and durability. However, Goodyear welted construction is the chosen method for some highly reputable brands in the shoe industry, for example: Alden, Alfred Sargent, Allen Edmonds, Barker, Boulet Boots, Brooks Brothers, Caterpillar (CAT), Carmina, Cheaney, Chippewa, Church, Crockett & Jones, Dr. Martens, Florsheim, George Cleverley (RTW), Grenson Ltd, John Lobb, Loake Shoes, Oliver Grey, Oliver Sweeney, Peal & Co, Red Wing Boots, RM Williams, Timberland, Wolverine and Sacoor Brothers.

The welt forms a cavity which is then filled with a cork material. The final part of the shoe is the sole which is attached to the welt of the shoe by some combination of stitching along the edge of the welt and sole, and a high strength adhesive like contact cement or hide glue. The Goodyear welt is highly regarded for a number of reasons including being relatively waterproof by not allowing water to get into the insole due to the welt-sole construction, the relative ease in which the sole can be replaced, and the fact that the shoe can last up to 20 years or longer depending on the treatment and condition of the upper.
The very nature of this shoe construction means that Goodyear welted dress shoes take much longer to manufacture than cheaper alternatives. Factories commonly hire scores of highly skilled operators to create dress shoes of comfort and durability. However, Goodyear welted construction is the chosen method for some highly reputable brands in the shoe industry, for example: Alden, Alfred Sargent, Allen Edmonds, Barker, Boulet Boots, Brooks Brothers, Caterpillar (CAT), Carmina, Cheaney, Chippewa, Church, Crockett & Jones, Dr. Martens, Florsheim, George Cleverley (RTW), Grenson Ltd, John Lobb, Loake Shoes, Oliver Grey, Oliver Sweeney, Peal & Co, Red Wing Boots, RM Williams, Timberland, Wolverine and Sacoor Brothers.A welt is a strip of leather, rubber, or plastic that is stitched to the upper and insole of a shoe, as an attach-point for the sole. The space enclosed by the welt is then filled with cork or some other filler material (usually either porous or perforated, for breathability), and the outsole is both cemented and stitched to the welt. This process of making shoes is referred to as Goodyear welt construction, as the machinery used for the process was invented in 1869 by Charles Goodyear, Jr. the son of Charles Goodyear.[1] Shoes with other types of construction may also have welts for finished appearance, but they generally serve little or no structural purpose.
Welt is also the name of the upper part of a stocking. A fabric is knitted separately and machine-sewn to the top of the stocking. Knit in a heavier denier yarn and folded double, the welt gives strength for supporter fastening.
Goodyear welt
The Goodyear welt process is the traditional method for the manufacture of men’s dress shoes, taking its name from the inventor who devised the original machine to replace the earlier completely hand sewn method. The benefit of a dress shoe which is made using the Goodyear welt construction is that the shoe can be resoled repeatedly, giving the shoe a lifespan of years, sometimes even decades. Some claims towards added ventilation have been made as well but there are no proven studies comparing the breathability of different shoe construction methods.

However, Goodyear welted construction is the chosen method for some highly reputable brands in the shoe industry, for example: Alden, Alfred Sargent, Allen Edmonds, Barker, Boulet Boots, Brooks Brothers, Caterpillar (CAT), Carmina, Cheaney, Chippewa, Church, Crockett & Jones, Dr. Martens, Florsheim, George Cleverley (RTW), Grenson Ltd, John Lobb, Loake Shoes, Oliver Grey, Oliver Sweeney, Peal & Co, Red Wing Boots, RM Williams, Timberland, Wolverine and Sacoor Brothers.A welt is a strip of leather, rubber, or plastic that is stitched to the upper and insole of a shoe, as an attach-point for the sole. The space enclosed by the welt is then filled with cork or some other filler material (usually either porous or perforated, for breathability), and the outsole is both cemented and stitched to the welt. This process of making shoes is referred to as Goodyear welt construction, as the machinery used for the process was invented in 1869 by Charles Goodyear, Jr. the son of Charles Goodyear.[1] Shoes with other types of construction may also have welts for finished appearance, but they generally serve little or no structural purpose.
Welt is also the name of the upper part of a stocking. A fabric is knitted separately and machine-sewn to the top of the stocking. Knit in a heavier denier yarn and folded double, the welt gives strength for supporter fastening.
Goodyear welt
The Goodyear welt process is the traditional method for the manufacture of men’s dress shoes, taking its name from the inventor who devised the original machine to replace the earlier completely hand sewn method. The benefit of a dress shoe which is made using the Goodyear welt construction is that the shoe can be resoled repeatedly, giving the shoe a lifespan of years, sometimes even decades. Some claims towards added ventilation have been made as well but there are no proven studies comparing the breathability of different shoe construction methods.
Essentially, the upper part of the dress shoe is shaped over the last and fastened on by sewing a leather, linen or synthetic strip (also known as the “welt”) to the inner and upper sole. As well as using a welt, a thread is used to hold the material firmly together.
The welt forms a cavity which is then filled with a cork material. The final part of the shoe is the sole which is attached to the welt of the shoe by some combination of stitching along the edge of the welt and sole, and a high strength adhesive like contact cement or hide glue. The Goodyear welt is highly regarded for a number of reasons including being relatively waterproof by not allowing water to get into the insole due to the welt-sole construction, the relative ease in which the sole can be replaced, and the fact that the shoe can last up to 20 years or longer depending on the treatment and condition of the upper.

Yay I still got time!!! Blah blah blah what am I even writing? Whack your boss is a rubbish game. Wait I’m supposed to write about welt. what ever it is!!! Oh this is awesome!!!!!!!:) Yipppeeeeeeeeeee! Oh yeah!!!! Uh huh.

It was a blue, painful thing, sitting between her shoulder blades. Three days and it showed no signs of shrinkage. He had probably meant it that way. A long lasting reminder of the consequences of disobedience.
I heaved a long sigh as I glimpsed the flowers in their vase, welting. “I should really learn how to actually grow flowers,” I breathed, running a hand through my hair. It was so cruel, buying new flowers every week, only to watch them die in the following days… If I at least learned how to actually /grow/ flowers, they wouldn’t have to die every week. Although… a great many would probably meet their end before I finally figured out the trick.
It rose, red and full of anger, to the top of her skin like a reminder of last night. She didn’t want a reminder, of course. Who would? But it appeared just the same. How could she even begin to attempt to hide something so obvious, so easily explained? It was hopeless and she knew it.
Roman
I noticed a beautiful flower while on my walk. I knelt down, pulling it from the ground. As I held it in my hand, I noticed a welt on the other side. But it was still beautiful, this I knew right away.
Sam cowered in the corner as his father hovered over him with the belt once more. Without making a sound, John whipped the belt at his youngest son once more. Sam was smiling though at least it wasn’t Dean. At least it wasn’t his big brother getting hurt. After all Dean was his hero, Sam was the freak.
Lekorda
It rose slowly over the course of several hours, and all the while he stared at it, transfixed by this bizarre injury. He lost count of how many times he had poked the welt, but he had long since stopped wincing in response. No one had ever hit him before.
I used to play paintball and it always depressed me that I would never get welts when I was shot in game. As I’ve gotten older, I am happy that my skin is not easily broken or bruised.
Daniel
I gasped at the sight which greeted my eyes. Her back was a mass of welts, some splitting open to reveal the tender flesh beneath, others just raised lines of irritated pink. And as if those weren’t horrific enough, beneath them was a layer of bruises some poisonous and dark, like the skin of a ripened plum, others almost healed, resulting in a shade of sickly yellow.
“Gods, Katya…”
The backpack strap had raised a large red welt on his left hand. “What did I do to you?” he asked. “It wasn’t my fault that taxi ran over you.”
He went to pick up the pack again. This time a strap from the other side of the pack came around and slapped his right hand.
“You didn’t get this stroppy when you fell off that bus in Thailand,” he said, rubbing his hands.
The flowers began to welt. Mirrors my heart. I tried standing tall and proud and full of life, but then blow after blow made me begin to shrivel and die. Eventually I won’t even welt and I’ll just be ash.
The little baby as crying because he has a welt on his arm that was hurting him inside. He run and run to his house in order to find his mother and ask her for help. The little kid find her and with a sweet kiss, his mother cured the little kid’s welt.
Like all flowers, she would welt a die. She came in the spring, she seemed a totally new person, it was as if she’d never been here when it happened. It was ever so unusual to see a girl of her standard in a place like this, she was magic. Her heart was gold but gold always rusts, she was open minded and new like a baby, but all babies grow old. Like all flowers she will wilt and die.
A welt rose on her arm where she smashed it against the wall while she was trying to put together her new bookcase. She was determined to be independent even if it killed her and from her current experiences with hammer, drill and nails, it might
actually kill her.
Your words are welts on my skin. Every time you look at me, another welt forms. I treasure this welts for they are the only way you touch me. I crave them. I long for them.
There were welts swelling red and angry all over his body, and he screamed as they devoured his flesh until there was nothing left untouched.
The mosquito buzzed away. I watched it go, then turned my attention to the growing welt on my wrist. It was lumping up nicely; the bite was right on top of a blood vessel. I resisted the urge to scratch.
She flinched less now. Her sore body had grown used to the regular strike, and her mind had freed itself from fear. It was off running, trying to find solace as her grandmother struck her with the belt, again and again.
Look at the red marks dented into your skin, grip the bokken’s hilt as you hold it at your side. Look across at your opponent, wooden sword in his own hand. This is work, practice, hardship, way of life.
I’m sick of the word welt. I wish they would have another word. I wish it wasn’t the same word the whole day long. I wish it would give me another opportunity to write. I like this thing. I like writing. I like how you write as much as you can in sixty seconds. It’s not about writing perfectly about welts, or whatever the word is for that day. It’s about writing.
She felt the welt. The pain screamed out. She looked down at her arm and saw the skin, burnt, flaming red. Not only did it hurt, it looked nasty. And gross. Eeew. Why. Why. She didn’t want a welt. She needed to be more careful. Next time she made pancakes.
She was burned up. It hurt. The fire on her skin was painful. The welt hurt. She looked down to see her skin a flaming red. The welt on her arm was ugly. she wasn’t used to being ugly. She didn’t like being ugly. What was up with that welt? Eeew. She didn’t want it. She needed to be more careful next time she made pancakes.
waiting for the gun to go, and the race to run. Tense, curled, coiled and ready to spring. But nothing lives up to expectations, and she welts when she sees what’s at the end of the finishing line
hi there its me a girl with nothing left. nothing just a thought that someday they will apolize to me.bye
The welt on my leg was enormous. Now how could i possibly wear the outfit that i had planned to wear. it would not be a pretty sight there would be not hiding that disfigure,ment. Oh what was a girl to do?
She looked at herself in the mirror and almost fainted. She did not recognize herself for all the welts on her face and body that were present. She looked like a monster out of a horror movie. How could he do this.
A burgundy blush, a bright red bloom. Right in the cleavage. Into the valley of death he flew. He hit the spot, I hit his spot, on at least two levels. *Ich bin der Welt um ihn*, so bad karma for me, but hey, it must be nice not to have to be a fucking mosquito anymore.
The divots left on him
were enough to make you cringe.
One look,
or one feel in the darkness;
you’d never be able to forget.
Little did you know,
and at the same time, little so did he —
how what was yours, and never again
could only see you and me.
He was hidden away for so long,
like the divots in his back;
and I never really knew
when he would return.
Welt is a German word for the World. It gives you a feeling about the universe as an entity and about a sense of belonging and oneness !
The welt from the animals was heard far away, and it distracted the players on the cricket field.
the throwing of the duvet revealed the new day; she coaxed another jet of hot stuff from the swollen pipe and revealed a new sense of self. it wasn’t much to ask her man, that he feigned injury for her sake, but it helped.
I got a welt on my arm when i grazed it against a nylon rope. It was quite painful. But actually, it looked worse than it felt. People who noticed it were intrigued by its colors. A lovely purple hue! Wouldn’t you love to see it?
wound as they call it.

However, Goodyear welted construction is the chosen method for some highly reputable brands in the shoe industry, for example: Alden, Alfred Sargent, Allen Edmonds, Barker, Boulet Boots, Brooks Brothers, Caterpillar (CAT), Carmina, Cheaney, Chippewa, Church, Crockett & Jones, Dr. Martens, Florsheim, George Cleverley (RTW), Grenson Ltd, John Lobb, Loake Shoes, Oliver Grey, Oliver Sweeney, Peal & Co, Red Wing Boots, RM Williams, Timberland, Wolverine and Sacoor Brothers.A welt is a strip of leather, rubber, or plastic that is stitched to the upper and insole of a shoe, as an attach-point for the sole. The space enclosed by the welt is then filled with cork or some other filler material (usually either porous or perforated, for breathability), and the outsole is both cemented and stitched to the welt. This process of making shoes is referred to as Goodyear welt construction, as the machinery used for the process was invented in 1869 by Charles Goodyear, Jr. the son of Charles Goodyear.[1] Shoes with other types of construction may also have welts for finished appearance, but they generally serve little or no structural purpose.
Welt is also the name of the upper part of a stocking. A fabric is knitted separately and machine-sewn to the top of the stocking. Knit in a heavier denier yarn and folded double, the welt gives strength for supporter fastening.
Goodyear welt
The Goodyear welt process is the traditional method for the manufacture of men’s dress shoes, taking its name from the inventor who devised the original machine to replace the earlier completely hand sewn method. The benefit of a dress shoe which is made using the Goodyear welt construction is that the shoe can be resoled repeatedly, giving the shoe a lifespan of years, sometimes even decades. Some claims towards added ventilation have been made as well but there are no proven studies comparing the breathability of different shoe construction methods.
Essentially, the upper part of the dress shoe is shaped over the last and fastened on by sewing a leather, linen or synthetic strip (also known as the “welt”) to the inner and upper sole. As well as using a welt, a thread is used to hold the material firmly together.
The welt forms a cavity which is then filled with a cork material. The final part of the shoe is the sole which is attached to the welt of the shoe by some combination of stitching along the edge of the welt and sole, and a high strength adhesive like contact cement or hide glue. The Goodyear welt is highly regarded for a number of reasons including being relatively waterproof by not allowing water to get into the insole due to the welt-sole construction, the relative ease in which the sole can be replaced, and the fact that the shoe can last up to 20 years or longer depending on the treatment and condition of the upper.

Welt is also the name of the upper part of a stocking. A fabric is knitted separately and machine-sewn to the top of the stocking. Knit in a heavier denier yarn and folded double, the welt gives strength for supporter fastening.
Goodyear welt
The Goodyear welt process is the traditional method for the manufacture of men’s dress shoes, taking its name from the inventor who devised the original machine to replace the earlier completely hand sewn method. The benefit of a dress shoe which is made using the Goodyear welt construction is that the shoe can be resoled repeatedly, giving the shoe a lifespan of years, sometimes even decades. Some claims towards added ventilation have been made as well but there are no proven studies comparing the breathability of different shoe construction methods.
Essentially, the upper part of the dress shoe is shaped over the last and fastened on by sewing a leather, linen or synthetic strip (also known as the “welt”) to the inner and upper sole. As well as using a welt, a thread is used to hold the material firmly together.
The welt forms a cavity which is then filled with a cork material. The final part of the shoe is the sole which is attached to the welt of the shoe by some combination of stitching along the edge of the welt and sole, and a high strength adhesive like contact cement or hide glue. The Goodyear welt is highly regarded for a number of reasons including being relatively waterproof by not allowing water to get into the insole due to the welt-sole construction, the relative ease in which the sole can be replaced, and the fact that the shoe can last up to 20 years or longer depending on the treatment and condition of the upper.
The very nature of this shoe construction means that Goodyear welted dress shoes take much longer to manufacture than cheaper alternatives. Factories commonly hire scores of highly skilled operators to create dress shoes of comfort and durability. However, Goodyear welted construction is the chosen method for some highly reputable brands in the shoe industry, for example: Alden, Alfred Sargent, Allen Edmonds, Barker, Boulet Boots, Brooks Brothers, Caterpillar (CAT), Carmina, Cheaney, Chippewa, Church, Crockett & Jones, Dr. Martens, Florsheim, George Cleverley (RTW), Grenson Ltd, John Lobb, Loake Shoes, Oliver Grey, Oliver Sweeney, Peal & Co, Red Wing Boots, RM Williams, Timberland, Wolverine and Sacoor Brothers.A welt is a strip of leather, rubber, or plastic that is stitched to the upper and insole of a shoe, as an attach-point for the sole.

welt is rubbish. I don’t even know what it i so I don’t know what I’m writing. What am I writing about? What is welt? I am going to search it up after this. Now I don’t know what to write. Yay I still got time!!! Blah blah blah what am I even writing? Whack your boss is a rubbish game. Wait I’m supposed to write about welt. what ever it is!!! Oh this is awesome!!!!!!!:) Yipppeeeeeeeeeee! Oh yeah!!!! Uh huh.
It was a blue, painful thing, sitting between her shoulder blades. Three days and it showed no signs of shrinkage. He had probably meant it that way. A long lasting reminder of the consequences of disobedience.
Ugly welts marred both of her knees.
“What happened?” he asked, visibly upset.
She gave a long, lost look out at the scenery and did not respond.
I heaved a long sigh as I glimpsed the flowers in their vase, welting. “I should really learn how to actually grow flowers,” I breathed, running a hand through my hair. It was so cruel, buying new flowers every week, only to watch them die in the following days… If I at least learned how to actually /grow/ flowers, they wouldn’t have to die every week. Although… a great many would probably meet their end before I finally figured out the trick.
It rose, red and full of anger, to the top of her skin like a reminder of last night. She didn’t want a reminder, of course. Who would? But it appeared just the same. How could she even begin to attempt to hide something so obvious, so easily explained? It was hopeless and she knew it.
I noticed a beautiful flower while on my walk. I knelt down, pulling it from the ground. As I held it in my hand, I noticed a welt on the other side. But it was still beautiful, this I knew right away.
Sam cowered in the corner as his father hovered over him with the belt once more. Without making a sound, John whipped the belt at his youngest son once more. Sam was smiling though at least it wasn’t Dean. At least it wasn’t his big brother getting hurt. After all Dean was his hero, Sam was the freak.
It rose slowly over the course of several hours, and all the while he stared at it, transfixed by this bizarre injury. He lost count of how many times he had poked the welt, but he had long since stopped wincing in response. No one had ever hit him before.
I used to play paintball and it always depressed me that I would never get welts when I was shot in game. As I’ve gotten older, I am happy that my skin is not easily broken or bruised.
I gasped at the sight which greeted my eyes. Her back was a mass of welts, some splitting open to reveal the tender flesh beneath, others just raised lines of irritated pink. And as if those weren’t horrific enough, beneath them was a layer of bruises some poisonous and dark, like the skin of a ripened plum, others almost healed, resulting in a shade of sickly yellow.
“Gods, Katya…”
As strange fingers stroked my arms, their nails fumbled slightly on my scar. Something barely noticeable to show for my pain.
