The Green Grocery: A Parent’s Guide to High Times

“Now listen, kid, it’s all about the art,”
“Crafting your order, it’s a delicate start.
We’ll find you the best, with a joyful heart,
At the cannabis shop, it’s a real work of art.”
You’ll learn all the strains; let’s go play our part,
A treasure of choices, like a weed-themed chart.”

Through doors that are tinted, a world made of green,
The shelves are all stacked with a glimmering sheen.
“Is that really a gummy? It looks like a dream!”
“Uh, yes, it’s a treat, but let’s keep it unseen.”
“Try not to grab too much; it’s not Halloween!”
“Can we get some of those instead of ice cream?”

The budtender stands with a smile and a nod,
“Welcome, young friend; this place isn’t odd!
You’ve come for education? You’ve lucked out, my God!
We’ve got all the goodies from sativa to clod.”
“Wait, what’s a clod? Is that where I am, trod?”
“No, let’s stick with ‘cannabis’, it’s less of a fraud.”

As options abound, choices become tough,
Indicas, sativas - it’s all getting rough.
“Just pick what you like! Don’t call it a bluff!”
“Okay, but there’s so many, this is super-stuffed!”
“Just smell them and feel; they’re all kind of fluff,”
“Like dad’s old couch? This shopping is tough!”

With a bag full of treasures, they head for the door,
“Did we learn a good lesson?” asks the little one, sure.
“I think we’ve discovered that weed’s quite the lore,
And that you shouldn’t ask if it’s safe for the floor!”
“Fair enough, my dear, maybe let’s not encore,
But let’s come again! Next week’s not a bore!”

As they exit the store, with giggles and grins,
The adventure of cannabis - oh, where to begin?
“Thanks for this lesson, can we do it again?”
“Sure, my dear child, but call it ‘The Green Win!’
It’s a rite of passage, like growing thick skin;
Now let’s eat this treat— and live in the win!”
