Shopping

Why is it that many chores
Require us to visit stores?
Supermarket, drug store, tailor,
Post office for stamps or mailer;

Card store, wine shop, watch repair,
Parlors for your nails or hair.
Emporium for gifts or clothes,
Shoe salons for shoes or hose.

Big box stores for an appliance,
Warehouse shops for sofa clients;
Florists, cleaners, laundry places,
Businesses for canes or braces.

Some folks choose to shop online,
Worshipping that e-tail shrine;
But I don’t mind my chore excursions –
They provide some nice diversions!
