PART I (for those of you who missed it back in June)

Oh, sweet mailbox, you bring me such wonderful things

Free coupons and samples you even bring me bling

Swiffer Master Card can’t be beat

second in line is the free subscription to BusinessWeek

Can it be true; you have brought me another

subscription to Working Mother

The abuse you take with the storms and sprinkles

today you brought me a sample for my wrinkles

You never complain even though you are worn out and looking bleak

you look like someone has dragged you down the street.

PART II

Oh, sweet mailbox, how good you are to me

you bring me giveaways and lots of things for readers to see

Our mail lady is probably exhausted from all this stuff

but she gently folds the magazines and hasn’t yelled “enough”!

If you are enjoing this mailbox poem you will have to admit

maybe, just maybe, you are “getting it“.

For the joy of waiting for the mail is a lot more than most can see,

for waiting and finding all the “happys” can be addicting.
