50% off

Fifty percent off -

what can one buy for 50% off,

not a lover,

nor a child,

groceries do not come so cheap

nor rentals, automobiles

or bicycles.

A friendship is invaluable,

a Family must be built, not bought.

WE cannot buy rain or snow,

or a sunny day, there are no bargains

on freedom or democracy, nor beauty.

the best one can do is wait until

the plants at the shop call to be put

into the ground.

I dash to buy them, and

plant them in the ground

next Spring there will be beauty in the Garden

50% off Plus Labor plus Love.
