Shoulder Bagging

(TO: One of my favorite appendages)

                    My shoulder bag is important to me
                   It bumps against the side of my knee
                    When I wear it there is no stopping
                       As I tote it while I am shopping

                     Wallet, makeup, notebooks too
                    And trusty cell phone (I love you!)
                      Breath mints and gum to chew
                    Just can't shop without them too

                       It's a mobile file cabinet of
                          Various assorted stuff
                         The weight sometimes
                          Makes shopping tough

                        Brandolini bag of leather
                      It has compartments galore
                       I love to haul it with me
                         All around the store

                     When we get to checkout
                        We are feeling fine
                    Both me and the treasured
                       Shoulder Bag of mine!

Purses and pocketbooks are like shoes to other women, I just can't have too many, but they must all have a shoulder strap and lots of compartments. Thanks for a very complimentary review, now I m going to go read a poem from you!
