The Missing Package

A little black dress Amazon said it has been delivered. We look everywhere. They said on the porch. We clean the porch. Unless it went down a mouse hole, it is not on the porch. We search the mailbox, even the garden cart for they left a box of cat food in there once. The garage was closed, and we doubt they entered the side door with the cobwebs that would make a hoarder shudder. My husband calls them back. They left it under the mailbox where the robin has her nest. We do not use that. It is the robin’s! Sure enough, there it is. Good thing it’s summertime.

In the winter if this would have happened the robin would have never forgiven them.

Package Hunt! You know, Caren, it's refreshing after heavy poems. I like your lightness of being.)) Am waiting on a package, myself. Such fun. Panagiota
