My Local Grocery Store by Dennis Hughes Waiting outside my grocery store In a single file It's a global quarantine Humanity on trial From behind her face mask The grocery clerk does smile She'll let me in with a clean cart In a little while My friendly local grocery store A happy place to be Miles of aisles all kinds of food Surrounds me comfortably And if I cannot find What I am seeking carefully The grocers in green aprons know That it's on Aisle Three I adjust my face mask It’s akimbo on my face Jostled by an errant shopper At the dairy case The bulk bins are all empty now From sea to shining sea Right here in America The land of great bounty The paper goods department echoes Softly when you walk It feels kind of ghostly People whisper when they talk The grocers calmly tell us "There will be more TP soon Warehouse trucks will stock us up By May or early June" The hot food bar is shut down And the salad bar is dry Usually it's stacked with veggies Piled two feet high The eggs are getting scanty At the end of Aisle Four A lady tried to swipe some by Rolling them out the door The ice cream's decimated But they have some frozen pies I'm going for a flavor That I never, ever tried Fresh squeezed OJ's a memory I give a little sigh No buttermilk for pancakes But somehow I will get by See all the tasty cookies The fresh pies, the chocolate cakes They're stacked as high as usual That is no mistake We don’t live in czarist Russia That would be no good This here's the United States Where we love comfort food A virus from the jungle In the pangolin fondue? Watch what you put in your mouth Or it just might bite you Blowfish sauté, bat wing pate’ Toast with jellyfish jam? You'd best think twice try beans and rice With a nice roasted yam The checkout line is lengthy Way back to the chilled drink case I adjust my latex gloves Try not to scratch my face The cheese guy has no samples No toothpicks and no tray But I don't mind since I did find All that I need today |
