The Welcome
They stood out
bright against the snow. The wind had got up, and they fluttered proudly. It
was as if they announced to the world 'look at me.'
She didn't
really want the world to see them. Just one special person.
That person had
been absent form her life for way to long. No one's fault unless you considered
working hard and taking pride in such work was wrong.
Which she
didn't.
However
sometimes, just sometimes she wondered. Why them?
For the
umpteenth time she looked at the clock. Not long now.
Once more
glance—they were still there.
Second
glance—they were gone!
Her heart
thudded.
The door opened.
As she turned to look at it, she burst out laughing.
Where the stick
had come from she'd no idea.
Dangling from
the end was her bright red thong. Last seen on the rose bush outside.
As she giggled
the thong and stick was followed by a camouflage jacket, trousers, and
skivvies.
Then her. Her
friend, her partner, her lover.
"That's
what I call a welcome home."
