Walmart Heaven

Just trying to lighten things up a bit with my tribute to Walmart

 Walmart Heaven

 
You can find them coast to coast
from the north and to the south
a chain of retail stores we 
could never live without.
For the majority it's Walmart,
but Wally World to some,
a place we visit often
to get our shopping done.
There's always a surprise as you're
greeted at the door,
some of them unpleasant 
some you simply can't ignore.
From bedroom slippers to stretch
pants you hoped you'd never see,
there's always something different
such endless possibilities.
You can get your hair and nails done,
eyes examined too,
cash your paycheck, file your taxes,
Walmart does it all for you.
Maybe that's the beautify of this
famous retail chain,
that keeps us coming back
time and time again.

A world of riches,
down every aisle.
Where properly dressed,
has gone out of style.

We do have to keep reminding the Walton siblings as we add to their
$100 billion dollar inheritance that...they chose their parents
wisely! (Didn't the Griswold family show up at Wally World with a
gun demanding they open the place? Seems they've turned the tables.)

I agree with Ronald, that's why my husband and I refuse to shop at Walmart. Seen small family owned businesses go under because of them. Shopping at Walmart just makes China richer especially round Christmas time. Sorry ... just honest opinion.

Yes and we have the Wallmartians to look forward to. Unfortunately, Walmart is becoming a monopoly and treats its employees quite badly while offering many goods that are not manufactured in the United States but from much industry outsourcing. We would do better to pay a little bit more at local, family-owned businesses rather than supporting the famous and ultra rich Sam Walton family.

Well it is the same here in UK.... Walmart is 'Asda' in UK. another chain is 'Tesco' (see my poem 'Tesco Twilight'...)
Everything available as you say....so different from the individual shops when I was a child....
