Friday Flash 55.....


She closed her eyes for some 'Sleepytime', on her daily train commute to 'Darjeeling'.
Although she appeared a little 'Green' behind the ears, 'Jasmine' knew her way around the ole 'Valerian Root'....
Every day after his 'English Breakfast', her employer 'Earl Grey', would have her whisper... .
"Oh Mr. Grey, your 'Red Zinger' is 'Oolong'".
.
.


If you or anyone you know has written a Friday Flash 55, please come tell the G-Man.
I will visit, read, enjoy, comment....Then Book!!!
So from the most gracious host from coast to coast...
Have a Great Week-End!
Peace...!!!

    wow, that was a nice one Galen... I love my cuppa tea :)

    My 55 would be about our devastating bushfires here in Victoria. The end lines would be about how wonderful human kind can be in the face of adversity..so many people hve been wonderful the whole World wide with giving donations and helping he people who lost their homes, almost 2000 homes lost to date...and also, who lost their loved ones.

    Hot Mona,

    Most of these refs to teas are names that a brand of teas here called Celestial Seasonings has for their boxed teas. Celestial does all these great names like 'Red Zinger' and 'Sleepytime.' Maybe you don't have this brand available in India.

    (You're SO not dumb! You are highly intelligent and insightful! And MUCH smarter than me! Ha! AND you are wise.) ^_^

    Hope that helps!

    ...its all about the tease...

    ya Mona, listen to Strumpette.
    except for that she's
    brilliant too...
    many people are,
    in their own sweet way...
    intelligence, insight
    and intuition
    come in many forms.
