The Five Minute Friday prompt this week is MALL.
Sorry, but you get another sonnet. I was just too ill to look up quotes.
I miss the old days at the mall,
the cool Aircon at every door,
and within, a place where all
was there that you could hope for.
I miss the jostling smiling crowd,
I miss the care took as I'd walk
through indoor canyons bright and loud
as I heard the shoppers talk
of treasures from Old Navy,
Baby Gap and Borders
It all seems a bit crazy
that a world of online orders
has rendered those days dead and gone,
crushed underfoot by Amazon.
Syl liked dog-friendly malls.
Andrew, thank you for faithfully posting these link-ups while you aren't feeling well! I pray God will bless your Christmas. I'm not a mall shopper. The crowds totally overwhelm me! I hope you and Barb can take a pleasant drive and enjoy the season, maybe look at some Christmas light displays. Sylvia might like that sort of outing as much as the dog-friendly mall.
