Reminds me a bit of "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town" by Kenny Rogers and the First Edition. Another good write.

Ha...Pink Salmon...I love it, but for tea? She should have taught you how to make eggs before she goes. Big hugs (^.^) Joy Wells

Beautiful, simply beautiful write my friend! You seemed to have mastered the art of the Haiku, a very difficult art to do so! Very nicely done, Great Work!!
