“You call that art?” Victor said as handed Officer Robbins a pretzel from his cart. “Art is like that Italian broad in the frame, Mona something.” Robbins bit into the pretzel, grateful that Victor was still peddling this late. He looked at the sculpture that Victor was referring too. It wasn’t his taste either but, still pretty in its own way. “You shouldn’t judge all art by your tastes, Victor” Robbins said, truly enjoying the freshness of his pretzel.

Being a marriage counselor, It’s interesting for me watching couples interact with each other. They sometimes talk of inside-jokes and playful references from their relationship. Doreen and Carl had many of these in their marriage. She labeled his laziness in not filling up empty ice cube trays with water to freeze as “Glacial Amnesia”. Where as he called her way of bowling the “Dinosaur sashay”.

Wonderfully, Peggy found her dream man
A restaurant chef simply named Stan
She was hesitant about this particular guy

But, Horoscopes are not always guaranteed
He was her perfect match who also made great Mac and Cheese

Weekend Writing Prompt~ Never granted

Posted on May 12, 2019 by johnfreda

His kindness defines an ongoing style as he secretly accepts his dreams in denial
The laughter that’s gained outweighs his own pain
Cheering all lives by advertising content lies
Simply accept his unfiltered choice in making you aware of forgotten joys
No pity wanted or a change of his view, what he wanted to be whole just isn’t true
Enjoy his company as he lives for your fun, Entertainment for all excluding just one
