Margaret Foster Poet Rhyme

Laura’s Store

Laura is a shopkeeper
Who’s selling many things
From  a plastic dovalacky
To brilliant diamond rings

She’ll unload on anyone
Just anything that’s handy
An umbrella coloured blue
Or sticky sugar candy

Incase your feeling teary
Hankies you can buy
Or maybe feeling hungry,
Ham sandwich she’ll supply

Looking for one item?
Coming out with more?
Probably now you’re penniless 
From entering Laura’s store
