I like to shop for things
Books old or new
Crisp pages or dog-eared
Any kind will do
I want
I want to shop
To shop for things
Rolls of ribbon, red or blue
Silk flowers or rings
Anything you know will do
A length of cloth
A dress, a pair of shoes
Perhaps a toy sloth
I want
I want more things
Just things and things
Little things, shiny things
Hair clips, ear rings
I love to shop and spend
A dime, maybe four
Such joy to change it for
One thing perhaps more.
Just things!
