PARKING AT ERIN MILLS SHOPPING CENTRE
Thank you for the kindness of letting me park many days for free
As at the hospital we, my husband and I, there often have to be,
We always do some shopping after the long treatment is done,
And I wonder if one day after shopping will our car be gone?
We can see your dilemma now Christmas is getting near,
There are a lot of parking spaces used by many we fear,
But if we combine it with shopping will we be towed away,
And two seniors be stranded on some cold winter’s day?
We do not want to break the rules, please let us know
If it is alright to do both things, leaving bags on show?
Another idea comes to mind to make a buck or two
Have a section of hospital parking a gate to go through.
Charge a dollar an hour, a few hundred dollars it would bring
Relieve some of the congestion, over there it is a terrible thing
To try and find a spot to park and it is so expensive as well,
Think of this idea, and with the joy of Christmas each heart swell.
