Packages DeliveredA Poem by Andrew jamesJust having a little funPackages Delivered Two packages were
placed on my doorstep today They come in the
mail in the usual way I wonder what
their content should be So I would bring
them inside to open and see One package is
heavy, wide and tall The other was
light and appeared very small Which one should
be first, a question I’d ask? While looking at
both I’d reflect on the task I receive packages
everyday They are always
delivered in the same way The deliverer’s
address is the same for just some And to my address
they always come Not ordering
anything to be delivered by mail Why are the
packages coming without fail? Why are they
placed at my doorstep to lie? The contents
within I never would buy I tried to return
them once in the mail But back to me
they come without fail At first I would
open all that did come Now tiring of this
I open only some Some packages
contain things I’ll never use Others contain
things I’d never choose How can I stop
them placed at the door? Can’t they tell I
do not need any more? But always they
come each day without fail Except Sunday I’m
free because there’s no mail Should I expect
this for the rest of my life?
