Gents Grocers

By, Cathy L. Chaney

Stop, Wait peer out the kaleidoscope, if for only a second! Gentlemen operate the grocery store.

Thick ones, thin ones, short and tall mention one task and they do them all.

On a special day, why they run all over the place, similar to Amtrak better get out of the way.

A little tike gazed in with only a small request, it actually made the thick gentleman undo his vest. What an eventful moment it was and he therefore had to solicit some help. He asked the thin one for a spot of assistance. Only the thin man was slow and as lethargic as could be. However, he could get the job done because he was as tall as a tree!

Upset and sad by the men he met. The little tike sat in the corner and began to rest. Wondering why his needs could not be met as a short little person pulled up on a bicycle. He implied too little tike, what is it that you want, surely, I could assist?

Sir, if I could just get the cheese for my chips upon that top shelf, I would get out of your way for the rest of the day. The short guy stated, “I know this seems like a small matter, but had you any idea for my state of affairs  at hand? Stunned and disbelief at such a challenging occurrence.

Offer me your bicycle. I can take care of this matter. So little tike climbed upon the bicycle and rolled it close to the shelf. He proceeded to get his bottle of cheese from the top shelf. Thick ones, thin ones, short gentleman and  tall. Soon little tike will grow and become like them all!!!

The End
