A Fishy Gift opus 699

20 November 2025 0300 Hours Friendship, Food
Richard, my webmaster, also controls my 'Poetry and Thoughts'.
He asked me to read some of my writings
To his Business Group, meeting once a month.
The gathering occurs at LampPost Pizza to consume pizza and knowledge!
His group provides the vittles and I asked if they had anchovy toppings.
He said he didn't think so and that was the end of that.
Well, the day came, and as I walked in, 
He pushed a can of anchovies into my hand. 
(The fish were from Morocco, the origin of many of my Trilobites!)
I was so touched, he would remember such a little item.
Richard, you are so thoughtful, to remember such a small inquiry.
I now have my pisces to garnish on what I will,  
And I thank you, Richard, for your thoughtfulness.
