This verse about professions lists
The signs where people work
They are not what they seem at all
Each one has got a quirk
The podiatrist knows that things go wrong
With the way that your feet feel
His sign proclaims “You’ll Come To Me
Because Time Wounds All Heels”
A shoe repairer down the street
Thinks fondly of his role
His sign says “I Shall Heel You”
“And Maybe Save Your Sole”
The gynecologist every day
Most surely earns her dime
Her sign says “I Am Always At”
“Your Cervix All The Time”
The optometrist’s much longer sign
Cuts quickly to the chase
“Don’t See What You Are Looking For?”
“Then You’re At The Right Place”
Some plumber wisdom echoes through
This very useful tip
Declaring “You Really Shouldn’t Be”
“Sleeping with that drip”
I get embarrassed reading what
My electrician’s sign exhorts
To customers, it dares to say
“Let Us Remove Your Shorts”
The obstetrician’s office door
Beside the lilac bush
Has a sign that says quite simply
That you should “Push, Push, Push”
Our veterinarian has a sign
For when she is away
It has the jive “I’m Back In Five”
“But Meanwhile SIT! & STAY!”
The electric company’s office sign
Is very often cited
It says “If You Don’t Pay Your Bill”
“We Know You’ll Be Delighted”
The dealer of some fine used cars
Whose lot is down the street
Says “If You Should Miss One Payment”
“You’ll Be Back On Your Feet”
The muffler shop has one big sign
It really is quite stunning
“No Need For You To Phone Ahead”
“Cuz We Can Hear You Coming”
The radiator guy has got
A sign that is unique
It declares to all that his shop is
“The Best place You’ll Ever Take a Leak”
And last, not least, the propane station
With its sign spreads goodwill
It simply says to everyone
“Thank Heaven For Little Grills”
