I love to rummage through Op shops
Named Charity shops to some
I enjoy finding a bargain
Whether vintage, rustic, whatever….it’s fun!
I grew up poor having a single parent
So money was tight indeed
Being the youngest it was mainly hand me downs
Or a visit to the op shop to get what I need!
So, it is in my blood I do believe
My sisters and I all love a decent rummage
Finding treasures at bargain price
Enjoying sister fun and laughter while 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 for charity”
Telling myself once again to refrain
Until, I get a sister txt or call
It’s off to the op shops I go again….
I need to apologise,
To sweet Deb M,
In my poem about vegemite,
I showed my age again.
As I have mentioned many times,
I am 84,
I can see the old folk's home,
Opening it's doors,
To welcome this old duck in
Because, of course, this ancient one,
Has committed another sin,
I said I was a Viking,
Instead of a vixen,
It rhymed with Viking
So much for my diction,
I was a Viking throughout the rhyme, you see,
Although a Grey wolf Vixen
Is what I'd rather be,
Grey wolf Vixens are elegant,
My fellow Vixens,
Only do what's relevant,
Waving our flag gaily in the air,
Advertising Vegemite,
They wanted Marmite banned there,
The elegant Vixen ate her vegemite from a spoon,
Only one tasty teaspoon made this old Vixen swoon.
P S Well, sweet Deb M,
I trust this is to your liking,
I am, a grey old, Vixen,
Not a crazy ancient Viking.
