Valentine's Day MYSTERY

________________________________________________________________________________________________

Where did this come from?

Everything you see here

was stuffed into 

the Valentine bag

which was discovered

outside my front door

There was no name

or indication

of the gift-giver

but it had to be

from one

of my fellow

condo dwellers

Was it intended for

Mrs. or Mr. CarPeo

or both?

Was it from 

a heterosexual,

a homosexual,

or transexual?

I can develop 

story lines

for each scenario

with nothing but

GRATITUDE

in the end

One of these scenarios

is the absolute truth

BUT

I prefer

the cosmic truth:

 

The package was discovered

at approximately 2AM

and technically,

it was no longer

Valentine's Day

It was a birthday gift

from 

My Mother

 

Sho looks even better

at 104

than she did

at 25

when this picture

was taken

To say

I Love You, Mother

could get me arrested

for 

belaboring

the obvious

💚💚💚
