A PLAIN HANDY BOX

If I were a box

I’d be a plain box

No fancy ribbons

No pretty wrap

Filled with joy

Along with sadness

Filled with dreams

It won’t share

Because it’s a practical

Useful box

A helpful box

Never a gift

Just handy

It’d hold diapers

Until needed

Bills until paid

Receipts for taxes

Seasonal fruit

Until moldy

Just a box

Unnoticed

Even as used

But no dicks

I’m not that kind of box
