The Heart of the Store
In a store where whispers weave like thread,
The old lady smiles, her spirit is bright,
With every item, a memory spread,
She greets each soul, a beacon of light.
Though years have passed and shadows may creep,
Her love for the trade, unwavering and true,
In laughter and kindness, her heart takes a leap,
For in this old store, life’s beauty shines through.
