The Last Mint

I think God has favorite people

like a mother has a favorite child;

she will say she loves them all equally,

and love them all she does.

But there is always one she loves

just a little bit more.

The one that gets hugged first;

little things that shouldn't matter

like another minute to watch a show

and the last mint in her purse.

Ever noticed that if you are in a 'big' family, it's the youngest... nice write and very neatly constructed... liked this a lot! :-)

I'm the youngest. It's not always the way it seems.
