Array ( [sid] => 30448 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => VERY EMBARASSING MOMENT! [time] => 2003-12-30 22:54:46 [hometext] => How many times have we absolutely known that something was a certain way, only to discover later that what we believed to be true....was not? [bodytext] => At an airport one night
With several long hours
Before her flight.
She hunted for a book in an airport shop,
Bought a bag of cookies,
And found a place to drop.
She was engrossed in her book,
But happened to see,
that man sitting beside her,
As bold as could be,
Grabbed a cookie or two,
From the bag in between,
which she tried to ignore,
To avoid a scene.
So she munched the cookies
And watched the clock.
As the gutsy cookie thief
Diminished her stock.
She was getting more irritated
As the minutes ticked by.
Thinking "If I wasn't so nice,
I would blacken his eye!"
With each cookie she took,
He took one too,
When only one was left.
She wondered what he would do?
With a smile on his face,
and a nervous laugh.
He took the last cookie
and broke it in half....
He offered her half.
As he ate the other.
She snatched it from him,
And thought.....Oooo,brother!
This guy had some nerve
and he's also rude.
Why he didn't even show,
Any gratitude!
She had never known.
When she had been so galled,
And sighed with relief
When her flight was called.
She gathered her belongings
and headed to the gate.
Refusing to look back
at the thieving ingrate.
She boarded the plane,
and sank in her seat,
Then she sought her book,
Which was almost complete.
As she reached in her luggage.
She gasped with surprize.
There was her bag of cookies,
In front of her eyes.
If mine are here,
She moaned in despair,
The others were his,
And he tried to share.
Too late to apologize,
she realized with grief,
That she was the rude one,
The ingrate, the thief!

So in 2004......"Always Keep An Open Mind
And an Open Heart, Because.......
You just never know.......
"You might be eating someone else's cookies!"

My friend sent me the
Story, it's true....
What an embarrassing
Moment too!

VERY EMBARASSING MOMENT!

I really sympathized with the woman in your poem. I have been in a lot of embarrassing situations and 9 out of 10 times I was in the wrong only to find out later. I loved this poem because I could really relate. It was really cute and witty!
