Unexpected Tokens

Though the words, you have rarely spoken. You present unexpected tokens. With my kiss, your intent percepted. Your apology is accepted. Added note after contest judging: My husband rarley says "I'm Sorry" He does however leave me little tokens that say it just as loud. A single Rose. Bringing me home an ice cream bar. A silly card. Doing the dishes that night, stc. For Barbara Gorelicks contest: Apology Accepted Placement: Honorable Mention
