My Grocery List

Initially grocery lists were from mom and pop

Or ordered over a call up

Now it’s the supermarket with shopping cart

Or booked online while feeding little tarts

Red kidney beans,skinless fats,stock cubes

Comical details,Gabfest at stalls 

Some say “it’s an art”,for several,its leisure chart

Retained in phone,slips,books or drafts

If lost,life is a boat without a shaft

A thought of danger lingers,if missed or left out

And items eventually bought will be diddly squat 

The grocery list if used picture perfect 

There would be a feel of sailing in the yacht.
