Labelled 'Lemon'.


Seen in a local Op-Shop!
MY TRUE COLOURS
suggests LEMON!

LABELLED 'LEMON'

Bric-a-brac and throw-aways no-one ever mentions,
No longer feel too sorry for themselves.
For they've been set-out tastefully, with artistic intentions,
Ready to grace other peoples' shelves.
All this lemon loveliness, seemingly respected,
Laid out on a table with good grace.
And even their own table-top hasn't been neglected!
See a cloth of decorative lace!
They thought they were discarded, to be thrown out in the bin,
Labelled with that awful 'second-hand',
But now they are co-ordinated, once more they can win!
For the second time in life they're feeling grand!

  2. And then we find ourselves pining for them, later on. Mom would just love to add those cups to her collection! Wonderful colours, Brenda! :) Too, anything with "lemon" in the title...

  3. As one who firlmly believes in re-cycling & finding treaure in others rejects this is a great lemon take.

    Best wishes

    They're so powerful and significant...

    But now they are co-ordinated, once more they can win!
    For the second time in life they're feeling grand!
