"O" - I drew a blank on this one this go round. I am going to use my one free pass (per D.L. Hammons j-is-for-jack) and repost my Ode to Thrift Town.
ODE TO THRIFT TOWN
I see your sign, I can't decide
What will I find today?
A shirt, a sweater, a book, a letter?
My heart skips a beat, a brand-name label?
A toy, a game, a picture, a table?
It is all part of the thrift shop game.
How could I be so lucky?
With these fortunate finds
Why did the former owner
Discard this gem that is now mine
The coupons off, the sales of the day
Would I have this much fun the retail way?
Love. It. And you said you didn't have an O idea. :-)
ReplyDeleteTrying to be on the up and up - since it is a repost (a cutie one at that).
DeleteI love Thrift Town! I miss shopping there. Worthy of some poesy!
ReplyDeletePS: you may want to adjust blog widths on your blogger temmplate. Your blog's images look out of wag, and I think you might want to clean it up a bit. Worth a few votes. Good luck!
Yeah, I let the banner extend beyond the margins and then left it that way. It looks ok on full screen tho.
DeleteI love the change of pace. This is a very cute poem. :)

The A to Z is challenging--so getting a free pass to re-post something seems fair. Wish someone had told me. I enjoy thrift shop finds--I'll come back and check out more of your regular blog.

Yeah, I think the free pass is sort of an unwritten thing ...
DeletePoor things, I have two pet posts coming up (my auto defaults when all else fails).

ReplyDeletei could only think of owl for O, used up all my creativity...
ReplyDeleteIt does kinda get to be a grind near the end of the challenge.
