On Saturdays my sister and I have 
something we’ve looked forward to do. 
It’s taking in craft fairs and yard sales, 
giving us a rest from our weekly hullabaloo. 

We walk and talk and take in the sights 
enjoying each others company all the long day, 
Midst all the splendor of the beautiful crafts 
that are made and so artfully displayed. 

Oohing and aahing we admire the beauty 
of all that we see has been done. 
We’re not buying much, to each other we say; 
but we sure are having lots and lots of fun. 

Then on the way home we see some signs 
pointing to yard sales down this way. 
Stop here and there, never know where 
you might find the best buy of the day. 

Nearing our homes, we think about our day 
while we are counting each treasure. 
We think about how just being together 
has brought us a day full of pleasure.
