The Thrift Shop

The thrift shop takes donations –

Clothing, housewares, jewelry, books

And much of it is junk, but some

Deserving second looks.

 

I rarely make a purchase but

At times I fill a bag

With items I no longer use

For them to sort and tag.

 

It hasn’t happened yet, but still,

I wonder how I’d feel

To see a stranger wearing

My old clothes – would they appeal?

 

I ditched them for a reason

But to see them looking fine

On another person’s body,

Would I wish they still were mine?
