I Want to Cheer You Up

Amongst the hibiscus of the garden, stands two cherry blossom trees. Though they're separated by a small path, their branches are intertwined.

When the sun sets, the breeze picks up and the branches tend to drift apart, but only for the evening. They stay uplifted, for they know the dawn will slow the wind and they'll be one.

As time passes, they grow. Though the sun is there, they reach for one another. Content to provide nourishment, the sun delights in the embrace of the cherry blossom trees.

Storms may come, let them. Let the trees gain strength and unity. The more they must endure, the more they can endure.

I can smell the hibiscus. Thank you for the little moment away.

Even over the lavender?

You're very very welcome 🙂

Even over the lavender, that smells like grilled food at the moment. I grilled yesterday for a get together and haven't had time to wash my hair yet. I've been tortured smelling the grill all day.

I hope you have leftovers at least 😕
acupaday · 46-50, F
I think someone was kind enough to leave me a burger and a hot dog for my choosing so :)
Brooksy · 41-45, M
Choose both! You need the protein 🙂
acupaday · 46-50, F
Boy, I'm still doing the diet thing. Shush.
Brooksy · 41-45, M
Your body needs protein. It's a fact. Just sayin
acupaday · 46-50, F
Duly noted.
Brooksy · 41-45, M
You're ignoring my nutritional recommendations?
acupaday · 46-50, F
Nope. I totally wrote that shit down 🙄
Brooksy · 41-45, M
😐 I just stepped in something. It smells funny
acupaday · 46-50, F
And what humorous remark did it spew to lead you to this conclusion?
Brooksy · 41-45, M
😆 You writing that down.
acupaday · 46-50, F
Hey now! I wrote it down...but it was on a "Brooksy's logic is at it again" list that I had to get out of attic, next to One Eyed Willy's treasure map.
Brooksy · 41-45, M
You have One Eyed Willy's treasure map?
acupaday · 46-50, F
😳 I didn't say anything.
Brooksy · 41-45, M
I know where you live 😐
acupaday · 46-50, F
...am I the only one hearing the SVU theme song playing right now?
Brooksy · 41-45, M
No no... I'm playing it in my truck. That's in your driveway
acupaday · 46-50, F
You're the garbage man?
Brooksy · 41-45, M
Yes, yes I am. Now you know why I collect your trash everyday.
acupaday · 46-50, F
Confession: I put a lot of things in the trash to mess with you just in case you ever felt compelled to rummage through it. I don't actually mix pop rocks and Pepsi. The lipstick marks on the banana peel was completely geared towards prying eyes. I don't still listen to Milli Vanilli on cassette.
Brooksy · 41-45, M
I'm going to pretend I'm not crushed.... And that I don't know what you're talking about.... And that I haven't stored the banana in a jar of embalming fluid 😐
acupaday · 46-50, F
Self preservation at its finest. I understand.
