It’s September 28, 2022. Welcome to Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (aka, FOWC). I will be posting each day’s word just after midnight Pacific Time (U.S.).
Today’s word is “market.”
Write a post using that word. It can be prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction. It can be any length. It can be just a picture or a drawing if you want. No holds barred, so to speak.
Once you are done, tag your post with #FOWC and create a pingback to this post if you are on WordPress. Please check to confirm that your pingback is there. If not, please manually add your link in the comments.
And be sure to read the posts of other bloggers who respond to this prompt. Show them some love.

“This little piggy went to market, this little piggy stayed home, this little piggy had roast beef, this little piggy had none and this little piggy …cried wee wee wee all the way home.” As a small child I remember my mother doing this to my toes and the resulting squeals of laughter….

I did that (with the toes) with a child I babysat. His mother was a bit surprised.
Here is the latter 2/3 of a different rhyme — that I didn’t repeat any of (first, second, or third):
To market, to market, to buy a plum cake;
Home again, home again, market is late.
To market, to market, to buy a plum bun;
Home again, home again, market is done.
To market, to market, a gallop a trot,
To buy some meat to put in the pot;
Three pence a quarter, a groat a side,
If it hadn’t been killed it must have died.

“To market, to market” is an old nursery rhyme with origins in English tradition, dating back to the 15th century.
Although its origins could date three centuries before, the rhyme was only published in its compact form in 1805 in the “Songs for the Nursery” collection.

I was raised with all these old nursery rhymes…sadly they are a thing of the past…and I think a loss to Chidren’s literature…. Enjoyed your poem.
