Bobbie Jo's Dress

This morning Bobbie Jo woke to the singing of a young Robin, she said this is a good sign. Been needing a new dress, yes sir, a brand new one just for me. Beehive Department store is having a giant of a sale, half off all their dress's. I will be oh, so careful, getting a dress is my mission. So into town went a very happy Bobbie Jo. Bobbie Jo, arrived in town, everything seemed, fine, she walked down the sidewalk, with her head high in the air. She would get a dress, nothing would stop here on this fine day. Lets see said Bobbie JO to herself, have I forgotten anything, no everything is, so going good, I will get me this new dress, Bobbie Jo reached Beehive's Department Store, she stopped in her tracks, sign read, CLOSED, for repairs, due to pipes breaking, poor Bobbie Jo, it had happened to her once again, so a very sad Bobbie Jo went home again, without what she had came for, will it ever end, said Bobbie Jo, will it ever end, so slowly she went home. wrote 8-4-08 # 4 in the Bobbie Jo Series in order to understand Bobbie jo, it would help to read the first three if you have not done so already.
