USPS Stamps of SpongeBob
Touching this postal stamp shaped just like a sponge
How many more of these stamps would be launched
The beautiful colors and the humor of animation
Cheering up a heart through this line of communication
The hues being used could moisten the stamp
Cute little stamps to use by those in summer camp
It has to be an

Post Office Farce
The post office
parcel farce
Those in charge
a little bit harsh
asleep at the wheel
give them a bonus
hundreds and hundreds
and nobody noticed
The honours awarded
Community service
Innocent to guilty
that is the verdict
you took their lives
their reps their money
are you obliged
a stint in the prisons
through ruining

At the Post Office
Had to mail some packages;
Waited on a line.
Didn’t take too long and really,
Everything was fine.
Still, I was surprised to see
My matched-up window clerk
Was talking on the phone, non-stop,
The whole time she did work.
She never said a word to me,
Just pointed at a screen.
I guess this was a very normal
Part of her routine.
Perhaps, without her

The Old Post Office
Last Saturday, my husband and I went for a ride,
To enjoy the sunshine and the countryside.
First, we stopped to eat:
What a treat...
The place we chose was not posh,
You could not find much better nosh.
Homegrown salad greens sold there,
Homemade Pies, excellent fare,
New laid eggs from their chooks
I think Paree is where they get their cooks.
Not a

O Dejoy
If USPS has your gift
Delivery will not be swift
It seems the Night Shift
Just got the short shrift
And somewhere your gift went adrift!

A Post Office
Hip hip hooray, I accidentally found a post office
That is still open. Anyway, I saw a person go in
Without throwing a brick.
Most post offices have closed around us.
I would have run back to my house for my letter
Except is would have been a thirty-two mile hike.
I do not even want to walk that letter
to my

The Post Office
Coins stacked like leaning towers of tilted soldiers
Oh the stories they could tell, well traveled
Phone rings, Hello, how may I help you?
Receipt roll falls from the till, unraveled
Could you tell me where my letter is today?
It was posted last Thursday? Around a mile away?
Unlikely,
let me consult my crystal

A Call From the Post Office
sometimes your heart and your brain has to bleed to smile
here i am exhaling with delight, but said delight is an internal clown
if you could have smelled the scent on the towels before these towels,
you would have thought that we both went into cardiac arrest
i once thought that there were sweet smelling flowers in my

Ode' To the Post Office
The thatch up higher
on the P. O. roof
a touch of home
as not aloof!
I estimate my grain of salt
not of default
what e'er is left
within the vault!
The stamp, still cheap
for all the business worth,
a sentinel of giving
Govee's own gloved reserve!
We lose it so, and then deny
our griping was the reason
not defy
our simple freedom, mails reply!
I bartered not

Post Office
Waiting is my short suit
Many chores await
Everyone moves slowly
Is this to be my fate?
I only have a question
Transaction should conclude
I just need a minute
It'll brighten up my mood
I've lived sixty plus three years
I recall people caring
We'd better train the younger ones
Or waiting we'll be sharing
I wonder how many years
Being patient I have spent
While workers chat,

Intrigue In the Post Office Queue
Happiness looks so natural upon you,
when your eloquent face beams forth
as you intricately attempt to converse
with everyone that surrounds you.
So many expressions tuning into your
wavelength, eyes, lips that surrender to
You’re every sound.
Oh! Yes retarded lady, how content you
look in your world of simplicity, even
though I know not your name, I do care
and share in your
