You Won't Believe Who I Saw at TargetA Poem by Elton CampWhat a surprise it was.You Won’t Believe Who I Saw at Target By Elton Camp I was surprised at who I thought that I did spy But caught her only out of the corner of my eye Even with a baseball cap and such dark glasses I thought, “For the First Lady that easily passes.” But of interest and surprise I didn’t show a trace After all, she is entitled to her own private space Nevertheless, a round-about shopping route I took So perhaps I could inconspicuously get a better look That time there wasn’t even the slightest doubt From the White House, Mrs. Obama had slipped out Standing around were several men in casual clothes They were Secret Service. Anybody can spot those That she’d shop in a discount store I had to admire She could’ve bought anywhere her heart did desire But if Wal Mart ever should happen to find it out They will wish they had gained her favor, no doubt © 2011 Elton Camp |
