Empty Jar of Pickles

I eat one then two,
An empty jar of pickles;
A guilty pleasure.

Ha ha! Everyone loves pickles! But we must watch the salt : ) Thanks Abe so much for stopping by with your thoughtful comment. Miss it here very much. I hope to be back soon, but I am almost afraid to jinx myself by saying it! Be well. Hugs, Shar

I agree with your Senryu, I love eating pickles too. It's not guilty, it's just a pleasure to eat them.

Nice senryu, I know what it's like to say I am going to drink only 1 soda and before I know it, I have over done it. Moderation is the key, but not for me...Raul
