Needed just a few items
Bananas, oranges, gardening gloves
These days mostly having needed items delivered
But today, late on a Friday,
Slipped my mask on
Headed to ‘Sauls Vegetable Market’
Yes, the name was changed to protect the innocent
Just grabbed a carry basket as I entered
Knew full well the location of bananas and oranges
The gardening gloves required a question
Usually a quick checkout
This time manned
By two perfectly young ladies
Well perfectly and young are redundant
Okay add ladies to the pleasant formula
Exchanged banter about the crazy times
Mentioned how they could now give their examples of having lived through tough times
To which one delightful miss replied
“Yes, when I was twenty in 2020….”
