Working At Walmart

At Walmart we're a happy group,
Our work is more like play.
We enjoy each shift so much,
And for this they even pay.

We can't wait to get to work,
So we can see each other.
We are all so close it seems,
We're sisters and we're brothers.

Of course we've had some leave the fold,
But they don't stay gone long,
For once you're here you've got a home,
A place where you belong.

We've had a tiff or two for sure,
And even shed a tear.
We don't need the T.V. set,
We've got the soaps right here.

To like it here so much I'm told,
We must be strange, some felt.
You don't have to be of course,
But sometimes it helps.

I had a smile on my face all through your poem, Judy. Sometimes it isn't where we work, but with whom that makes a job pleasant. It must be wonderful to be part of this special family! Hugs, Carolyn

Love it, Judy. My poem "Don't Believe Everything You See" was based on a Wal-Mart Grocery Department experience. Your poem is well-written and fun!
