Recycled Presents

She sent a pair of floral plaques, to me, and pretty though they were, I wasn't thrilled at all because they were the ones I'd sent to her... * a true story

Congratulations on your winning placement in the poetry contest Jack, and thank you so much for sharing your poem! That was quite the thoughtful gift, I guess she knew what you would like because you bought them! Lol, oh my goodness, now you can frame your poem and give it to her and tell her you published a poem for her ;-) I hope you had a merry Christmas and that your new year is filled with all that is good!

Cute one. They say always ask the person about recycling their gift but of course, it is supposed to be going to someone else. I guess she was either really forgetful or she was making a statement. Thanks for all the visits to my page. Sara
