Pallets

Working in a warehouse I see alot of pallets come and go.

Pallets are like snowflakes, but even more unique.

No two are alike, and unlike snowflakes they do not melt.

Some have likely been to multiple continents.

Some could be decades old, nailed back into shape with a board here and a screw there.

I wish they could tell their stories.

Everytime one breaks I feel a little sad that it is destined to a scrap pile for firewood.

Some may have carried gold bricks, salt, or air conditioners.  Maybe all three...

  1. Imagination is all it takes. Who knows? And even if it's only a one out of ten possibilities, something may just be true. Indeed, gold bricks could really have been on any one of those pallets.
