Delightful Forgetfulness Of Old Age
“Do you want some ice cream? I’ll take a spoon for you.”
***
“Where is the ice cream? There was a lot in the box,
yesterday in our fridge.”
“I don’t know? Then our son must have eaten it. Who else?”
But as I returned disappointed to the table, how happy I
was, as there it was just beside my plate.
“Who put it there?”
“You, but forgot when you went away to take a spoon for me, you blockhead.”
“What a delightful forgetfulness, you little fool. Ha. Ha.
Let us enjoy.” So said Opa Johan to his wife.
