Oddities

On occasion, I have,
Obsessed over weird things.
Odd and unique doodads.
Old or new will do too.
Orange, purple, red, blue,
Objects are welcome; an
Oasis for strange stuff.

I can assure you that you're not the only one obsessed with odd things, Alexis!! I know of somebody who, amongst other things, always puts on his right sock and shoe first :) ~ Best regards // paul
