Treasures and Trash

By: - Dec 14, 2015

Stuff

Every nook and cranny
Shelves groaning
Dishes never used
Double and triple sets
For special occasions
Depression glass
Bought years ago
Super cheap
Revere Flea Market
Investment back then
Worth more now
Who to sell to
Baby boomers
Retired all at once
Dumping both
Treasures and trash
No buyers
Can't give it away
Please take it
Mom would say
Empty nesters
From house to Florida
Then assisted living
Bed and a closet
Pills and meals
Yet on TV
Home shopping
Kitsch with glitz
Trinkets and beads
Genuine faux pearls
Call now and save
Only a few left
Utter madness of
Acquisition
Father forgive me
For collecting
Bargain hunting
Such a deal
A real steal
Seventh seal
For stuff
