We'll meet at the peach tree, he said.
That one in the corner
I'll prepare dinner for two
He smiled and flushed.

I looked in his eyes and thought
Gosh, how sweet
Look he blushes
Red like a tomato
The love apple.

As I arrived in time
He made me look like a fool
No bug, let alone
Love around.
I climbed the tree
To be on the lookout
Guess, what I saw!
He was serving himself.

Dinner for two?
My ass
It was his, not mine.
Next time, I accept
the invitation of the aphid party.

I don’t know why,
but it reminds me of my last invitation
to a dinner for two.
There were no cutlery,
no chairs,
not even tables.
The surroundings were useless to us—
our attention was drawn
to the food,
scattered in different spots,
quite inviting,
carefully placed
to enhance its flavor.

It sounds your invitation for dinner for two worked better out than the one described.
Or perhaps he had fun, while there rest was more interesting in the meal offered.

It's good to see you hop by.
Enjoy your lunch/dinner.
♥️

It's always good to read a trace from you wrapped in poetry.

I will lit the candles after I set the table. Lunch?

🍀♥️

thank you.

Thank you, I’d love to join you!

🌻♥️

Lunch for two, I am finished

My ass
It was his, not mine.

Hahahaha… the bug could have called that’s she’s on the way rather than meeting such scene…

But let’s be sincere, this is one of the best table for two… until you are caught red handed with pants down😂😂

Now see, how funny you are! You should write stories again and make me laugh instead of the crypto pain.

This red bull has wings and can fly out of the scene!

P. S you were caught!

The magic of art. That lightness that wraps everyday things in a halo of sensuality and colors. To turn the everyday into poetry. To give meaning to all the crudeness that surrounds the daily look. That's what it's all about, feelings. Tenderness. Color.

Let's say: feeling first, it's not sure if it's always about love and tenderness, ventilating perhaps?

These insects are nice and cute🤗

I was surprised to see them. Usually, they are late and arrive at the end of summer if all plants by long eaten.

Maybe the very first lovebugs at the first warm🤗

Let's hope they are in time and it won't freeze again.

Here nowadays freezes during many months per year😂...not any more the tropical area I knew when I was engaged to marry😂

Indeed they are...

It's nice seeing you around in Freewriters. I thought you were only active on Italy community.

This year I'm mostly active on Italy community cause lack of free time (especially since the death of my brother-in-law that put the family in troubles), but I was active among various communities before. When possible, I comment on other communities.

I am sorry to hear that.. My condolences!

Maybe, it was the time that I came by your post was somewhat busy.. XD

Thank you friend. All began at the end of February. My brother-in-law drowned while swimming in a polluted water place where he never should have entered. And he was the fourth deceased family member of my husband into a few years...

I hope that his family is holding on well. Such tragedy is difficult to comprehend in any scenario...

Some of them needed psychiatrist care...and my husband and I aren't that fine also, but we are trying to ride it out (not easy). Sharing my creative writing in these platforms and capoeira course help.

Ummm.. I feel you.

Writing of course help. It takes your mind off that certain adversity and keep you focused on what you are doing. If you think about it, it could be that you have many aspects in life. It may be wise to not affect every part of your life with the adversity as you have so many things that you are good at and may not have to be affected by the adversity.

My condolences too dear. I hope you are fine.

Well, it's still difficult. My brother-in-law is the fourth deceased family member into a few years. So his death put the family in psychological diseases that still last.

That indeed is hard. With us 2 gemerations died within 1 year.

I'm so sorry...
My brother-in-law who last died was only 43 years old...

No need to feel sorry. It's longer ago and for everything is a reason, it was just strange that while my grandmother was on her deathbed her children and even grandchildren died before her.

I wonder what makes us believe we all gel 'old" whatever that age might be. If I look at the average age with us it's around 43 and it's not different from other "developed" countries so what does this mean? Many babies die since also there are elderly of over 90 but still the average age is not high and most likely it will only drop with the vaccinations and everyone living on meds and chemicals in food.

How are you doing friend?
Are you still doing Capoeira and teaching?
I hope your husband is fine. Blessing to you.

Lol.. The last picture was funny.

What stikes me is how low tempered he was in the conversation... Hahaha

She ran away and he was stuck to her... unless it was the other way round. In a way she looked annoyed. I guess he should have introduced himself more properly...

I guess he should have introduced himself more properly...

I remembered Avril Lavigne song, when she said "she was a girl, he was a boy".. LOL
I didn't know how that rang a bell!

And what to think about a boy named Sue because his dad found it a great way to prepare him, plenty of men are called Marua and Jan (female name in the US) is John in Dutch. If it comes to it "What's in a name" is painful so that bug might be wise to not introduce himself and eat his way up.

After so much sweetness, seeing him blush, it turns out that he ends up eating alone, forgetting the invitation he made

Who knows he has more luck tomorrow unless he likes the food more.
