Shopping

Mother sends me to the market
To buy many things
Fish, salt, sugar and tea
But first write a shopping list
To help me remember them all.

I carry a shopping bag
Ride my bike to the market
To buy from stalls
Directly to stall ten, i ask the prices.
I buy sugar and tea.

I then go to the fishermonger's
Order for just a kilo of fish
As you all know fish is expensive
And then to a nearby shop I go
For the rest which I pay
I ride back home.
Mother thanks me.
