Shed
One house we pass when walking
Has a paint job, spanking new.
New owners must have bought it,
‘Cause that’s what new owners do.
Adjacent to the house there was
A sign which simply said,
In letters big and bold, one word –
No more or less, just SHED.
We figured that the owners
Maybe planned to be away
When someone came to place a shed
Where they’d like it to stay.
But weeks went by and nothing changed,
The sign still saying SHED,
Until one day, there was
A little building there instead.
My husband said, “It’s magic!”
So he thought he’d follow through,
Hoping that his sign – “2 CAR GARAGE”
Will make his wish come true.
