stripes

*

always loved the

blue-white stripes.

*

a while ago

my friend Leontine

came by for coffee

and she had this big box

filled with straw

and things wrapped

in old newpapers.

*

for me , she said

you do like blue and white !

*

I was speechless

because there were all kinds of

kitchenware from

cornish

*

plates , bowls , cups-and-saucers

for coffee and for tea ,

cans , sugar-bowls ,

coffee-mugs

*

Can you imagen

how

SURPRISED

I was

and still am

every day

*

wish you

sweet surprises
