Weis Words?
Oh, Henry, Little Debbie cried eggs-citetly
Simply Orange in their life vests freshly
Squeezed from the sinking ship into
Lifesavors they went...
Iceberg! Lettuce be thankful we’re out of that pickle
Not quite the Titanic, but... when the Rubbermaid Kraft
Finally reached shore they could call Scott
To come and take them to Aunt Jemima’s and Uncle Ben’s Log Cabin
Once safe they could recuperate from their ordeal and enjoy a
Fancy Feast of La Bonne Vie brie, Acme Smoked Nova Salmon,
Swiss Premium Lemonade, anything but Ball Park Franks
and Bush’s Baked Beans...
(….and that’s as far as I went cookie, so ‘happy trail-mix to you ‘till we meat again...)

I really wasn’t sure what to do with this prompt...Addled brain inspired at 1am this morning came up with the above... So you can believe in low light, on scrap paper, pencil and no glasses - I came up with some light-hearted play. Weis is one of our local markets, Bold = name brand, regular is just items found in the supermarket, and or their advertised slogans, italics are my two cents worth - Enjoy.

Clever, clever, clever! Thanks for some fun in the grocery store!
ReplyDeleteLove it, Jules, because it is such fun and so playful and my brain can't work this way while at the same time thoroughly appreciating it. I'm giggling and shall read it again to laugh.
