 Left at my door, was a package.

I had no idea where it came from.

It had no return address, no senders name.

Just a nicely packed package.

 

I fumbled around and finally opened it.

There to my suprise was a can opener.

No message as it seemed none was necessary.

What do you do with a can opener? Duh

 

I have used it at once.

It works swell and my thanks 

To whomever sent it to me.

The first can I opened was beens.

It doesn't matter what kind of beans you opened, as long as you are again writing & posting, that is all I need to see and hope you are well? -e-

Glad this got you posting again. Also glad if those were only has beens, and not fart beans, that you are satisfied with the results.
