It's window shopping,
not the usual method.
Smiles three-a-penny.


 
With thanks to Tess for her prompt at Magpie Tales.

    HaHa! The notorious 5/7/5 format of another Haiku, even though all the lines are the same length!

    Doc- 5/7/5 is the format for saying the most with the least. Merci à toi, mon petit chou. You are not as green as you are cabbage looking...

    Growing up NJ, the stores used to closed on Sundays because of "blue laws"...so we 'd drive around and window shop instead.

    Smiles can achieve miracles and so can Japanese poetic forms.

    Indeed a great way to go shopping without spending.

    Why am I now thinking they had water balloons in the back seat to throw out the window?
