Who's For Dessert? by Gordon Lawrie

28/5/2021

 
Vanilla ice cream
Topped with warm chocolate sauce –
I'll have some of that.

Watch those sprinkles on the north face of your ice cream mound. I'm planning on licking 'em till they hike-up or slide-south. That's all I got cause I'm lactose intolerant. Enjoy the weekend!

Hi Gordon - (my) Sue's teenage granddaughter was struck by a bus yesterday in Boston. We were waiting till this morning to hear how she did overnight. She's talking slightly, which is good, but still intensive care. Sing a healing song for her please and save me some ice cream.

Really sorry to hear your news, Bill. I'm sure all at FFF will be thinking of you – I'm not sure my singing would do her much good – and hope she gets better very soon. Please feel free to keep us informed if appropriate.

Thanks. She's stable. Has appetite but long road. Some head trauma. She's hardheaded and ornery like her Grandmother. I'm not sure how the bus is doing, but we expect a bill. Ciao and thanks.

I had to look that up, Mary. Yum. Update: Little brain bleeding but it's small enough now they can give her pain meds for the rest of her aches. She had a popsicle and saltines yesterday, and told the nurse not to touch her. That confirmed to us she's good. I did say she's ornery. Whew. Thanks for the love.

Update: She'll be leaving ICU today for another room. Woo Hoo! Walking talking thinking - looks good. Keeps repeating 'can't believe I was hit by a car. Her mom corrected the first time 'a bus, honey' - but now just letting her say it. She's talking. Who cares.

    Poetry

    This is the section where fiction prose becomes something else. We still expect the poems to be short, though – sonnets, perhaps, or around that length at the very most.

    Poems submitted should be
    no longer than 160 words
    and contain
    no more than 16 lines.

    100 words remains the approximate target.

    Please submit using the Poetry Submissions Page.
