Evening With the Neighbors

Allegorically tangled with pink braids and lips that sparkle with blue paint deeply connected to nature while waxing the house plant's leaves to a green, clean shine... Perhaps that's me today. For, tonight, we will invite the flamingos for dinner -these neighbors long legged and lean, full of stature and the ability to withstand the winds of life, standing on one foot... Let's polish the silver! Get out the liqueur! Peppermint, banana to sting at the tongue after eating garlic butter escargot and casseroles with French names.. Perhaps they will visit this house and call us "crazy pickles". Art deco furniture and straight laced friends. It's Amore' when they see us taking out our garbage -their heads full of our redeeming qualities. But... When they step inside and breathe our air... Will they faint for lack of normalcy? Or will they uncover a tin-foiled plate full of flamingo pink cookies and, good natured, laugh at us with knowing eyes?
