Song lyrics, With The Miracles
“Here is a shop of wonderment.
From every land has come a prize”
Joyce Kilmer Trees and Other Poems
Trees and Other Poems (1914), Delicatessen
Context: Here is a shop of wonderment.
From every land has come a prize;
Rich spices from the Orient,
And fruit that knew Italian skies,
And figs that ripened by the sea
In Smyrna, nuts from hot Brazil,
Strange pungent meats from Germany,
And currants from a Grecian hill.
“Cause my wife gets up and goes shopping.”
James Garner (1928–2014) American film and television actor
Asked why he gets up and goes to work every day.
