You Are Hereby Cited

You are hereby cited to appear

In First District Court next Tuesday

To face charges of reckless operation

Of a supermarket shopping cart.

You were observed

Speeding in the canned goods aisle,

Side swiping a parked cart,

and making an inproper turn

at fruits and vegetables.

You were also observed,

sampling grapes and strawberries.

If you fail to appear

The Jolly Green Giant

Will hunt you down and flog you

With an asparagus spear.

I hope I brought a smile.

Like Jessica below me, I wondered what crime I had committed when I saw this in my inbox! Yikes! Was glad to see it was something you wrote; happier still when I read it. Made me laugh and that is always a good thing. Cute, clever and very funny. Thanks for sharing this. :)

Hehehe...This one is so fun. I love the serious tone; it really keeps the piece together.

I can just see the culprit rounding a corner to fast, wheels skidding, and again at the grapes looking around to see if anyone watches. XD This one is just excellent. I needed a good little laugh. Thanks.
