Wall Drug, South Dakota

The 80-foor dinosaur is really nice
For the children of summer to Ahhh! and Oooh!
John Wayne pictures, cap pistols, and gamblers’ dice
Sugary candies and taffy to chew

And I bought gifts that will last ‘til the fall
They even delight the merry old sun
Happy prairie delights that bless us all
Then for the winter squirrels a feast of fun

At Wall Drug –

All sorts of gifts and books and wants and needs
But I came away with sunflower seeds!


(I have no connection with Wall Drug in Wall, South Dakota; it’s just that the place is several acres of interesting shops and outlets and good, kitschy fun.)
