Neat poem. You've got the talent for it, though we recommend reading up on poetic meter and alternative rhyming schemes.

Reply to [WP] You knock on your neighbour's door nervously. She hasn't been here long and you don't know her well. She opens the door. "Sorry to bother you, but can I borrow some thyme?" You ask. She nods and gestures for you to come in. "How much do you need? Hours? Days? Weeks?" She asks mysteriously. by Mini-Noises
"I meant the herb actually; I'm baking a chicken and need thyme for the seasoning mix. I'll give you a portion of the meal in exchange?"
Her expression seems almost disappointed. "Ah. Well, that's shockingly mundane. Still, I should have some thyme in the kitchen, just a moment."
The door closes. Some time passes and I hear a "Whirrwhirwhir" noise from deep inside her house as blue light leaks from the windows. Still, a minute later she comes back with a small jar full of ground up thyme, ready to use.
"Thank you, miss?"
"Terry, I'm Miss Terry. I'm looking forward to that baked chicken. It was wonderful."
Somewhat confused by my weird but friendly neighbor, I go home and get to cooking.

I remember posting this one for the first time. Glad it's back again.

It triggering people wasn't the issue, but the sub rules say poems need to be tagged [POEM]. If you repost it with that tag it'll probably be fine.
