Lets Invite Everyone

Let’s invite everyone.
I don’t want to invite Twinky.
Why not?
He pushed me.

When?
In first grade.
Can you forgive him?
No.
Why not?
He stuck out his tongue too.

You are grown now.
Can you please get over it?
I am not ready.  It hurt my feelings.
You are forty-two years old, can you PLEASE remember that?
Sure.

Can we invite Twinky?
Absolutely not.
Eye roll now.

Sometimes we all have had a Twinky in our life. Oh, boy. Good poem and like the verse Panagiota
