I'VE BEEN DOWN WITH A BAD VIRUS AND THIS IS MY FIRST OPPORTUNITY TO ANSWER LAST WEEKS CHALLENGE/PROMPT

MOMMA’S GIFT, A JUNK DRAW3R

© 2012 by David Wainland

100 words

Mom said it was for my stuff

I could own a bit of privacy

Nobody would look in

I don’t think anybody did

At first it was toys

Yo-yo’s, tops, sports cards

And soon it was books

With worn bindings

Photos I could not show

My first prophylactic

Playing cards

Coins for pitching

A push button sword

And a zip-gun

My contract

For our military

Forty months

And I was back

Nobody would look

‘twas  mom’s word

I dump all my junk

Put in my pay

A gift for mom

An oath to fulfill

Nobody would look

Nobody did

Trust
