Shopping in Stores

Sometimes in a store I browse And other times I buy. It all depends on what they’ve got That might just catch my eye. And even if I fall in love, An item might not make it For if I can’t display it, There’s no reason I should take it. Today, 3 times that happened - Two with posters, one sans frame. I just don’t have the wall space So I couldn’t stake my claim. The last, a set of tumblers, Painted with assorted eyes, Turned the concept of “eye glasses” Into such a fun surprise. Still, I had to stop and ponder If the joke was worth the price And I came to the conclusion That the mem’ry would suffice. Yet I also made 2 purchases- Some clothing and a gift Which, along with pumpkin ice cream, Gave my day a welcome lift.
