Second Hand Deb

I love to rummage through the op shops Called charity shops to some I enjoy to find a bargain Be it vintage, rustic, whatever….it’s just fun!! I grew up poor, with just a mum So money was tight indeed Being the youngest it was hand me downs Or a visit to the op shop to get what I need! So ,it’s in the blood I do believe My sisters and I all love a decent fossick We find our treasures at bargain price Having sister fun and laughter doing it! Sometimes you get caught up in the moment And buy just for the sake of it Get home at look at your treasures Thinking why did I buy this s**t!! Justifying it by saying “It’s all for charity” Telling myself I must refrain Until I get a sister txt or call It’s off to the op shops I go again….

Wonderfully written. This was a delight I could relate to. If we were neighbors... friends... close... I would come by and pick you right up, and off we would go... Excellent poem... Ann
