Lunch Can Wait
Jeannie came out onto the balcony to call to her grandfather, Big John. She had a salad, sandwiches, sweet tea and brownies ready for their lunch. She could see him at the picnic table with Sally. Sally was spending the summer with her grandchildren, a few streets over.
The breeze kept mussing up Sally’s curls. Big John reached up, trying to put the strands back behind her ear. Smiling, Sally took his hand and cupped it with both of hers. Snippets of their laughter drifted up.
They are just so darn cute at that age, Jeannie thought. Lunch can wait.

This story is really cute also, Tresha. Well done. 🙂 — Suzanne
Aww.
How sweet! Sometimes we need a reminder that love isn’t only for the young.
Great writing! (:
Thank you. I believe we have a great capacity for love, at any age.
So sweet – I can just picture the scene!
I was drawn in by the image and entertained by the words.
Oh, what a sweet story! I didn’t know there was a picnic table until I read several (yours being one) stories about it.
I like it that we see different things in photos; makes our stories interesting.
I absolutely do too. I love to see how creative some people can get with the photo prompt. I love it! I am fully addicted.
Dear Treshaabarger, EXCELLENT! Lunch CAN wait. Lovely story! Nan 🙂
