Not-Quite-Happy Returns

A package comes, you open it

And, though it seems to match

The order that you placed, there is

A big or little catch.

 

It doesn’t fit or isn’t quite

The item you expected

Or maybe there’s a problem

In the way it was inspected.

 

You print a label, wrap it up

And rapidly return it.

If there’s a lesson there, it isn’t

Hard for you to learn it:

 

The purchases we make online,

Though easy, cheap and quick,

Unlike the ones in person,

Often do not seem to stick.
