Run to the store
After work.
Pick up a few
From my mini list.
Overstuff my
Carry basket.
Checkout line
Ringing out.
Look behind,
There’s quite a line!
Seems I arrived
At the perfect time!
Feeling successful,
And compassionate.
Smiling,
Make some room
For the gal’s heavy things
Behind me.
Bagged up
Payment made
Off I start to go.
An Ol’ neighbor
Shouts a sweet hello.
I answer back
With a “How are you?”
Quick exchange.
Life
And a grocery store
In a small town.
Not one person knew
I conquered
A panic attack
To be there.
Kind Regards
and # winning – K

This is the story of my life at the supermarket. You captured the moments! And here’s a tip. When I’m waiting on a long line to pay, I pick up a copy of People Magazine and read it until it’s my turn to load my food on the conveyor belt. At least I get in a little pop culture instead of feeling completely frustrated.
