Express Checkout
by TD Euwaite

In 9 to 5 the formula is flawed by one detail
There’s people between the times
Beneath the sacks of mail

The customers identified by letters A to Zed
No ink or eyes are recognized
Unless the color’s red

I need some help with purchasing
A gift for one divine
What can I give the Lord above
Except more of my time?

It's wonderful TD..........

The last four lines!! I know not exactly what to say...i love it very much...it's graceful...and if i had a girl friend, i would have made a small change in these lines to copy down on the valentine's day card...

"I need some help with purchasing
A gift for one divine
What can I give my dearest Love
Except more of my time...

these lines rule my day for sure.....thanks to TD, the author!

Hah, I don't really get it, but I like the rhymes! Excellent word choice.

Several meanings here....the one I'm leaning to is: Between living and dying, that express check-out we all are surprised by, but must go through anyhow....thus the gift of our Time, dedication is His, and to Him.

Dude, you are seriously on a major roll *^_^*


Perfect, ik Semper'll love this, how special <3

And your peace of mind.

It's beautiful, TD.

Yeah,OK

Very true it is, and so well written.
