THERE IS SOMETHING I CANNOT RESIST
TO WRITE ABOUT THIS LOAD ON DI’s WRIST
IT STRIKES ME QUITE FUNNY
KNOWING THAT WITH VERY LITTLE MONEY
400 BANANAS BOUGHT JUST COULDN’T BE MISSED
OF COURSE WITH DON’S CLEVER EYE
NEVER WILL A GOOD DEAL GO BY
ADS AND COUPONS HE’LL USE
MARKET CASHIERS IN AWE, BUT AMUSED
A WEEK’S GROCERIES, FOR A BUCK NINETY-FIVE?
AND SO AS LIFE GOES ON
THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A DI AND A DON
WHETHER IT’S BANANAS OR JELLO
SHE’S A GREAT GAL; HE A FRUGAL FELLOW
SHALL I GO ON AND ON AND ON??
