In My Purse!
While cleaning my
rarely used purse
I find:
Two picture postcards.
(never mailed)
One pack of crackers.
(already stale)
a book of poetry
(I read every line)
Two boarding passes.
(his and mine)
Some notes I wrote while on the plane.
( on how I would never fly again)
Some tablets I took for a cold.
( oh, Toss that! Three years old!)
A crayon picture.
(drawn all in pink)
three pens that don’t write.
(all out of ink)
Some matches I bummed from a bloke.
( I laughed at those; I no longer smoke!)
And way down in the bottom corner.
Almost out of sight.
A note from my Husband.
(My Life’s Delight!)
