Magic Potion In These Rags

There they hung
Pegged to stop falling
Double folded some
Just too big to safely grace
A plastic hanger, rows and rows
Designer label outfits, that reeked
Style, quality of eras gone by

The heavy duties, some larger than a mac truck
Poking and pulling the fanciest attire
Offering mere pennies, for designer clothing

Disappointed, enraged, insulted
She removed the for sale sign
Pack up her treasures for the day

There must be away to get decent monies
For her over-sized designer clothing

She would try next week again
She busied herself all week printing off a
Magic Potion for each designer outfit

Down to the dollar store in a flash she flew
Purchased a whole wack of pastel envelopes
She stuffed an envelop for each outfit
Sealing them shut with the Magic Potion

Perched on a stool, next to a little card table
Looking like a little Pixie in a Halloween costume
The little card table draped in a gold metalic lame'
There lay the pretty pastel envelopes all sealed With the Magic Potion inside


They came still offering mere pennies
She would pipe up
I have a magic potion for each outfit
Spinning around with a little home made wand
She chirped

For a wee fee you too can shrink in size, like me
I will sell you my Magic Potion

You can only seek the Magic Potion Inside
Once you wear the outfit for one full day.

That day she had record sales
She packed up her emptied clothes racks
And laughed all the way to the bank!
