a bowl a dart
an old straw hat -
you'll find it
here be my guess at the old thrift shop
piano songs
the old masters fingered -
hidden memories
ah! to reside at the old thrift shop
an amulet -
rare and potent magic
its quotient
its there somewhere in that old thrift shop
wheres and why fors
a bit of this and of that -
embeded bric-a-brac
it all comes eventually to the old thrift shop

I like flea markets very much (which are quite similar to thrift stores, I think).
I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

I like the way you tie the haiku together with the interstitial lines.
It sure does, and it can all out live us all! I love to wander these old places though!
