What automatically came to my mind was a couple excited to have a baby. They bought shoes and other baby stuff like a lot of expecting couples do, and something happens which causes the wife to have a miscarriage. And for some reason they are unable to have anymore kids, so the unworn shoes is a symbol of the future that they are never going to have.

I am interested to hear everyone else's automatic interpretation.

When I read that story by Hemingway, almost every idea that comes to my mind carries something pessimistic. It is great that your interpretation is at least partly cloudy.

Well written, but doesn't make any.

They blinked, and everything was gone.

7 :[ only thing that came to mind,

Life is a series of dreams.

Mr. Godot never met a unicorn.

They wept under love's oppression, gladly.

It looks easier than it is :),
