Poems, Prayers, and Promises from a Country Parson

I recieved word today that Cokesbury will be closing all of its brick and mortar stores.  No more physical stores where you can walk in and smell new books, touch stoles, try on robes, and shop for United Methodist souviners.  I'll miss the store.  I always enjoyed shopping there.  Friendly people and a good selection of merchandise. 

In response to the news I offer this poem:

Good Bye Bookstore

Good Bye vestemant shop

Good Bye parament merchant

Good Bye recipient of much of my Account Reimbursible fund

Good Bye Cokesbury

Clear off the shelves with going out of business sales

Hymnals buy one get on free

The Complete Works of Wesley half price

Going, going, gone

Goodbye Cokesbury.
