She didn't need to "prove" it when she went into town.

Especially when she walked in the 'grove' by the river.
She found a treasure "trove" of nature and wildlife.
She is also a "voter" in Walnut Grove.
She bought toner for her inkjet printer.
She had to go "north" to find the right kind.
What was the "worth" to her of this print job?
The price they put 'forth' shocked her into silence.
Would she have to sell her Robert “Frost” first edition book of poetry.
It was the "first" book she paid for herself.
She was thrilled that it had a 'stiff' cover.
Her bookcase was full of "stuff".
that had to be cleaned every week by her housekeeping 'staff.'
Her collection of stuff was a “feast” for the eyes.
It had a glass door to protect her things from her lovable "beast" of a dog.
At the very "least" we have some memories.
She made it out of "steel" so it would last.
Now she's worried that someone might 'steal' it.
She knew she's have to contact the "state" police if someone did.
And worried the crooks might 'skate' on a technicality
There's been a 'spate' of robberies lately
There was a "steep" increase in break-ins.
Because, unfortunately, all the guards came down with a 'strep' throat.
Because the guards were sick there was a crime "Spree".
Criminals all "preen" in front of the security cameras.
They love to show-off for their "peers'".
It may be time to “reset” the security system.
Or purchase a new one from an electronics "store".
The crooks were eating "torte" and laughing at the sick guards.
The toilets were clogged because the guards had the "trots"
So that's the "story" they are going with.
They met later behind the shed, keeping their “tryst” private.
Because too many times they'd been hurt by the upper 'crust' elites.
