Our friends were coming over,
In an hour maybe two
we had finished all the housework
only one thing left to do.

My darling hates to grocery shop
But I will shop with joy
Amidst the aisles and consumers
The cashiers and bagger boys

Now as I find the Dairy section
My confidence exceeds
For I do shop with gusto
For all our household needs

Not one but two whole gallons
Do I grab with just one hand
And stuffing list between mine lips
Think that I am quite the Man

Ahh but now my pride doth trip me
As sailing to the floor
Goes one of those two gallons
That I had grabbed before

The spray of whole milk showers round
And speckles one and all
A lovely puddle on the floor
And I careful not to fall

I find a good stocker lad
And beg of him a mop
I position my self cleverly
Yet still others do not stop

Now clever little trails of milk
Run this way cross the floor
And I wonder what is taking so long
For the stocker lad I saw before

But now I've read the Adventure
of Wordancer at the store
For though not crying over spilled milk
They need the mop there more


(( I have not a clue where Wordancer shops...but I can imagine both our pictures up at the door...warning everyone ahead of time *LOL* ))

  I want to shop where you shop!  My supermarket is soooooo dull!  Excellent!  Keep it up!

My goodness, at least it was only milk and you kept your sense of humor. Cute poem you made of your experience.

Nice one here hahahaha



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
