Little Gherkins

 


Such a noble name for a pickle

At a roadside stand

three for a nickel

 

Not that much of an impulse item

but people stopped just to bite em

 

The sign said please, stay in your car

I’ve gone to get another jar

 

Traffic snarled and clogged the town

No way through, no way around

 

It really was a pickle.
