Give Me An Estate Sale Please

Garage sales are fun but estate sales are even better I love looking through other people’s incredible stuff It is a great way to find that kooky Christmas sweater To find red petticoats and turquoise jewelry for a cuff. An album full of photos of people from the olden days Paisley bell bottoms from the seventies and a fur vest Classic 1940’s pinstriped suits in navy’s and gray’s And a beautiful Birdseye maple homemade chest I take a peek at this lady’s baubles, buttons and bows. In oranges, greens, silvers, satins, and periwinkle blue. She has left them behind in meticulously straight little rows I may have to buy a few. How about you?

I love this pleasant and enjoyable poem, Caren. I guess that's what makes estate sales so popular-you never know what you might find. :)

I really do love poking around in houses, looking at all kinds of marvelous things.
