To want a simple Greek column
For our yard or inside our house
Is a cat’s hunt for a wild mouse
Or a downhill trip doing slalom
One would think it would be easy
With all the gadgets and things
To buy an item not fit for a king
But it seems difficult not breezy
The locals stores both big and small
Have got nothing of a simple kind
Doric or Ionic sample on my mind
Not an acanthus or a weird oddball
So I turn to the net the great beyond
Looking for my “granite” caryatid
Too many weirdly shaped monoliths
Could I find it mayhap at “Amazon”?
Alas, the biggest mall in the world
Returns something semi- satisfactory
Not really a desired item calefactory
But my search is the history purled!
