Life!?!

I had an injury at work. laying low, yet always writing. I got a package from Amazon. Please forgive/have compassion for my muse. ..................................................................

I admit I have bought in Shopping online yet again These goods will keep me from the grave When delivered, I’ll be saved

This purchase is ‘one time only’ No longer aging, cramping, lonely My life will never be the same Perhaps poorer for the game

I hear the truck, redemption’s near What the………… truck’s not stopping here??? One more day, I can do it Life is hard, I’ll get through it

And when my order does arrive I will triumph, not survive When at last my gift revealed Surprize, surprize, my fate sealed

Oh wait, I hear the sound again Prelibation deep within Is this the day my package comes No matter whom the to’s the from’s

Oh thank goodness, glory be It’s on the stoop and it’s for me Knife in hand, bliss awaits Each flap opened worth the wait

Pull it out, eyes opened wide It took hours to decide Red or fuschia, large or small NOOOOOOOOOOOOO This was not my choice at all

It IS ugly AND IT”S GREEN Oh no, on this bod won’t be seen!!! I vow never never again Back in the box and then- then- THEN Computer on, once more my trek It’s out there still, Aw, what the heck. PatsyP.
