Hidden ( my 1st try at a story poem )

The celebration began with the cutting of the ribbon. Still I remained hidden. The ladies clapped their glove covered hands and laughter danced throughout the water onto the land.

All was set for a sail on the water. An evening everybody would never forget. A shiny new ship headed out for her first trip. A variety of socialites in their best suits and beaded gowns began to sip champagne, gossip and dance around.

Hidden I wondered how I could make my escape. The man I thought had loved me was there and by his side was his wife wearing a red cape. Looking back to yesterday he'd ask me to come with him as a business date. Now it was too late. My heart sunk deep into the bottom of the sea. How could this be happening to me?

I was unable to stay hidden any longer. Somehow I had to become stronger. When the crowd began to linger I grabbed a kitchen apron and started serving dinner. While carrying the plate to my love's table I was having trouble keeping my apron around my waste. Before I knew it the food landed on top of his head and face. I had to laugh. Finally he was put in his place.

No longer did I have to stay hidden. The manager said I was forgiven. As for my X he made threats and slammed down a bottle of whiskey. I walked by and told him he had my pity. His wife had already left on a earlier flight. I was told they got into one hell of a fight.

I made a promise never to stay hidden from anything, anywhere or anyone. I would be living a good life full of laughter. Through out now and the here ever after.

They had an episode of Three's Company where Chrissy dates a man she doesn't know is married, the same guy who played on Bewitched. My mom used to be a waitress, and I try to give a good tip.burger waiter
