The Note

by Bill Schott


 

Amos began the note he had to write, but had forgotten what it was about. 

He had wanted to send a note to the lawn service to do a better job around the driveway edges.

Then he remembered, he had to go to the bank in the morning. Smiling, he quickly wrote a note:

STAY CALM. THIS IS A ROBBERY.
