Sweet Potatoes

I used to buy sweet potatoes 

Every time I went to the store.

My partner doesn't like them.

I realize: I never buy them anymore.

It's brief and meaningful!

I love this, short and bittersweet just like the passing thought that you don't buy them anymore. Go buy some sweet potatoes!

This poem is short meaningful, and to the point. I like it a lot and can't wait to see more!

In any successful relationship their is compromise but it should be a two way street :)

I'm not sure if this is fictional, but I'm sure if your partner can recognize that sweet potatoes are important to you, it won't take long for him to pick some up for you, himself.

Thanks for sharing; I'm reminded of Hemingway's six word flash-fiction - sometimes a little can say a lot.

Thanks for the review! I think I'm trying to think about all the parts of yourself you accidentally lose when you're in a relationship, small things like produce but also bigger things. I should buy a sweet potato though haha.

No, I get it - it's called an objective correlative.

Again, thanks for sharing.
