A Tidbit of Trouble

A Tidbit Of Trouble.

I found a tiny snippet on the kitchen table,

with script in her fine handwriting applied,

that said "I'm leaving for some oth r g y!"

The paper was all blurry from

coffee stains and food prep

my heart stood still,

my true love was gone.

so suddenly

I called up all her friends, to no avail,

they said she wasn't there, try so and so.

Depressed I fell in tears upon the couch

comptemplating my bleak future........

but suddenly the door lock made a noise,

she came in with a bag and a bright smile,

and said,"They had no broth, but I got gravy."

so we'll have turkey, scratch the chicken soup.
