Greeting Cards

I love receiving greeting cards
On birthdays or occasions
And sending them, as well,
Which kind of evens the equations.

Yet lately they are hard to find –
So many stores are closing
And people turn to e-cards,
Or that’s what I am supposing.

Some local drug stores carry cards,
Selections not extensive,
But though they’re nice, the problem is
That they are quite expensive.

Such prices just discourage those
Who’d like to send a greeting
And losing customers, to me,
Seems very self-defeating.
