Spices for Sale

I have so many spices
in the cupboard,
some new, some old,
ones left
by others
that have cooked
or baked here
and moved
on to other kitchens
in the great beyond.
everything from sage, to
red pepper,
bay leaves
and oregano.
I might have thirty
bottles
of them all.
salt grinders,
pepper mills,
little cans of nutmeg
and cinnamon.
I was thinking of having a yard
sale
for them.
some unopened
never to be used.
a nickel each,
or best offer.
how they got here
and aligned themselves
on the shelf
above the stove,
I don't have a clue.

My partner and I stumbled over here by a different web page and thought I
may as well check things out. I like what I see so i am just following you.
Look forward to going over your web page for a second time.
