Poetry: Inside my purse

by Sherrie Porter

Created on: April 17, 2008

Enter with care
Do you dare?
Lord knows what you'll find
Will something grab me
Or am I just scared
Do I have the courage
Or shall I wait another day
Guess I'll venture in
Have to go to work
Need the keys to start the car
Okay, here goes
Lord give me the strength
To look inside my purse
Unzipping the top
Take a deep breath
Reach in
Nothing bites
There are my keys
What a relief
It's safe to look inside
No scary monsters
Just lots of junk
I think tonight when I get home
I'll dump it all out
Get rid of the junk
So I won't be afraid
To look inside my purse
