What’s going on in boxes? 2021
All our earthly goods going into boxes
Boxes on boats going up the Amazon
The Amazon has broken it’s banks
There’s a flood of boxes to our doors
…
Gone are the High times in those stores
No more High streets to explore
All tied-down are those boxes in their queue
Dropping off and dropped off to us
As we look out our window and see another two
…
What’s going on in boxes?
Less plastic – means more boxes to view?
Amazing boxes tracked-right-through
Amazon driving by – Amazon in the sky
…
What’s going on in boxes? – smugglers try
All kinds of ways to fool the law
Gleeful receptions from Mrs. Smith, and Mrs. Gaw
Boxes jumped into by cats – kids love the box
Forgetting the toy rabbit – whilst losing another sock
…
What’s going on in boxes?
Amazing boxes sturdy and secure
I think outside the box – and procure
Another delivery – Alexa already knew
I would be receiving it at half-past-two
…
What’s this thing about boxes?
YouTube and a grand unboxing
As though it was the opening of Parliament
We’re meant to be glued to the TV screen
Supposed to learn from the unboxing theme
I mean how hard is it to open a box?
Has our boredom taken over the planet?
A channel on unboxing –
Sponsored by those who run it
…
When entertainment is unboxing a game
We’ve lost the plot – it’s such a shame
Still – whatever floats your boat
Down the Amazon – boxes galore
What’s going on in boxes? – like I asked before
…
Are they all made out of ticky-tacky?
Hoarders houses cleared by boxes on the floor
All boxed-books disappear out the door
…
If you know what’s going on with boxes
Please let me know
Another box has arrived – with driver in tow
…
I try to sign the thing that is electronic
If I was a drinking man
I’d reach for another gin and tonic
I enjoyed this. As I was reading, I was thinking… there must be a cat in there! Sure enough, you did not disappoint. 🙂 Thanks for sharing. I have a lovely stack of boxes in the corner of my studio. Boxes are interesting. Some are beautiful. Some are broken. Some are useful. I do like boxes.
