Uncompensated Loss

UNCOMPENSATED LOSS I am crying because I dropped the posy down a storm drain, gone forever ‘Precious gem of a lover.’ It was the first gift from my love Rosy. Soft shy tongue could not voice her feelings. I boldly approached to propose She hesitated to come close. Only the posy was her offerings. I was charmed, honored but failed to preserve the gift of her suppressed pleasure, my most valuable treasure. Now stormy rainy night just to observe. 03/07/19 Third Place 'Down a storm drain, gone forever' Contest by Eve Roper
