I don’t mind Taking the time to walk the aisles Though at times They seem to be cluttered miles Of repeat themes. It’s sort of nice For I’ve been there so many times More than thrice And don’t get bothered by the lines Of the many It’s many Possible choices I might just take The plenty Yet it’s the same choice I’ll make Every time. No hurry And still I can be surprised at times No worry The surprises are not just all mine But for many When I start Going the way I always go through With a cart Even if get just an item or two And just looking For next time I might get oranges or grapes Or a lime Perhaps eggs for some crepes Or a soufflé Then I’ll see The condition and aisle they’re on, There they’ll be, Waiting for I shop far beyond Convenience Gloom |

hmmm.. I remember a shopping experience once with someone rather tall. The humor in his disposition made me laugh as I recall. Each isle, was found a jingle old, each item held he, smiles unfold. Yes, I recall that special day when inconvenience had it's say. M ![]() |

Prof., when I read this a second time, I got lots more of your meaning...I'm coming back later to read it again. I'm sure I will get even more from it then. . . I gues it's obvious that I really liked this poem... ![]() "Love makes the world go around" |

I say "in and out"... "wham bam, thank you Sam!" I don't have much patience for WalMart, but it's the only place I shop. |
