Once a little girl named Monique
Dreamt of opening up a boutique
Between the creek and clinique
Thought long of every technique
Her sign above would be no antique
It would glow and actually speak
“Hello we’re MYSTIQUE -
Open every day of the week
Come on in, have a peek
We sell clothes that are chic
Indian silks from the Sikh
Colourful lace and batik
For women of every physique
You’ll love us, we’re unique
And for lunch, stay fill your beak
Try Mom’s soup of fenugreek and leek“
While others were playing hide-and-seek
Little Monique dreamt of opening her boutique

Her innocence was gone
Maturity was her mystique
And she wore it like makeup as in clinique
She smiled and looked through deep eyes
Seeing through the disguise
She was wise
Serious was her demeanor
Compared to a pleasant dream of the dreamer
She sought pure thoughts and a heart that was cleaner than clean
Right and wrong were not important
Truth trumped those nouns
And only truth wore the crown
She listened to words as if she was reading a good book
And if ones words didn’t match their behavior
Then she knew that she was listening to a mind crook
She untangled their words and threw away their hooks
Wisdom and folly are two extremes
Wisdom builds self esteem and folly takes one downstream
One is kind and one is mean
She always walked towards kindness and peace
Those two attributes were her centerpiece

My moisturizer’s from Clinique.
When I am running low,
I wait until it’s bonus time
And to the store I go.
For give-aways are advertised –
With purchases, of course;
You have to spend a set amount,
Which all the clerks enforce.
So 27 was the price
You’d need to qualify
For the make-up bag of goodies
That Clinique would then supply.
I plucked my lotion from the shelf
But I was in a fix
Because – you guessed it – on the box
The price was 26!
I chuckled at how devious
This tactic seemed to be
For lots of other customers,
Like me, want something free.
Without much hesitation, though,
I knew what I would do.
To get the bonus I deserved,
I splurged and paid for two!

A handsome Greek with able physique
Met a middle-aged woman called Monique,
They were both emerging from a fixing clinique
Experts in plastic surgery technique,
Now they both don't look so antique.

At the bottom of my closet,
I found in a bag
A brand-new gray skirt
With its price on the tag.
I spotted the slippers
I swore I’d thrown out
And a dozen Clinique* cases
(Freebies, no doubt).
I also unearthed
Shoes from way in the past
And a cartload of shopping bags
I had amassed.
As these “treasures” got tossed
In a burgeoning pile,
I couldn’t resist
Just the hint of a smile…
For in all of that mountain
Of stuff on the floor,
What was missing was what
I’d begun searching for!
