SHARING
Into McDonalds walked a little old couple
'Tis a very cold winter night, they walked slow.
They looked "out of place" amongst the younger jungle.
All eyes were watching them, with love's outflow....
You could tell what everyone was thinking.
"They've loved each for more than 50 years...."
Such devotion, such loving, such sharing
Married all those many years, aged, through many tears
The little old man hesitated, and stood at the counter
He then ordered fries, and just one hamburger.
Everyone noticed that he only ordered one and not two.
They slowly sat down, placing the tray on their table
for all to view.
Seated up against the back wall table,
He began to divide the French fries evenly
as he was able.
He then took the wrapper from the hamburger
and cut it in two.
Just one drink also, she was drinking while
this little ritual he went through.
A young couple sitting near them could see
They probably couldn't afford to buy items,
more than three.
The young man simply couldn't stand the agony.
He approached them politely and offered to buy them
another meal for free!
They both thought that was so kind, but
refused his offer,
The little old lady said, "We always share."
The little old man continued eating and
enjoying the hamburger's flavor.
Another young man approached, and said,
"Please let us help you, we really care!"
The old man then insisted, "We're just fine,
you I'm thanking"
To the little old lady he said, "You're just sitting
there, why aren't you eating?"
She said, "Because we are still sharing?
The younger man said, but you're not eating
what are you sharing?
She answered.........

"Too often we underestimate the
power of a touch, a smile, a kind word,
a listening ear, an honest compliment,
or the smallest act of caring, all of which
have the potential to turn a life around."
~Leo Buscaglia~

Delightfully humerous ConSue, words and pictures - just incredibly comical.
But Leo Buscaglia's quote is remarkably serious and so very true. Save it!
"Too often we underestimate the
power of a touch, a smile, a kind word,
a listening ear, an honest compliment,
or the smallest act of caring, all of which
have the potential to turn a life around."
~Leo Buscaglia~
Blessings
Thanks ConSue
Love and peace

Absolutely delightful piece. Not sure I could share teeth, but suppose if that is all you have you do what you can to survive. It shows the true love of the two people and willingness to share in all. Thank you, Connie, for sharing this.
Much warm love,
Rita |

| Apart from the teeth this could be the wife and I. McDonalds is not our type of food too so perhaps we are just the loving couple that shares everything. Great poem Great Pictures The wife and I we just loved it hugs from bernard. |
