Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 953 (Fast Fun And Easy At The Grocery)

I went to the self checkout, because it was supposed to be fast, fun, and easy-

Of course, no human conversation did there happen to be.

.

I appreciate being a special customer, as the machine tells me so-

As long as we can get the job done, our relationship will continue to grow.

.

To first find the bar, and then take a swipe-

To then put the item, in the bag, without much hype.

.

I know to put it in the bag, as the machine keeps telling me so-

Remind me again, so that we can get on with this show.

.

And, thanks for the button, in case a bag will not be used-

Some items, such as gallons of milk, can be excused.

.

Yes, we’re finished now, and I’m about ready to pay-

With my choice, of payment, I’ll be on my way.

.

Was this experience really fast, fun, and easy?

Just checkout my face, upon departure, and you will see.

.

Of course, no human conversation did there happen to be.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 891 (Just Like Grandmother)

We went shopping, Mommy and me-

To find the perfect doll, it just had to be.

.

It had to have the prettiest outfit-

It had to have legs that bent, so that it could sit.

.

It had to have hair just like us-

Otherwise, we might have to make a fuss.

.

The eye color was important too-

Same old same, the whole way through.

.

For Mommy and me we look a lot alike, in

many ways-

More some so, on certain days.

.

And, to figure out why, we need to look no further-

Than pictures, of much loved Grandmother.

.

A generational thing, that happens to be passed on-

Been going on since the first break of dawn.

.

We went shopping, Mommy and me-

To find the perfect doll, it just had to be.

Gonna Try It-Not On A Diet (83)

At the store I got the loot-

Filled the basket with veggies and fruit.
