‘The day I forgot my pin …’ (IP)


from the ABC set Families

or had I?

“Wrong pin – Try again”
Bewilderment.
“Wrong pin – Try again”
Bafflement!
Confusion of brain?
Card withdrawal
in case it’s consumed,
or they swallow, block it, lock it.
Concerned,
‘my pin’s not hard … ??’
back in pocket,
to its wallet returned –
astonishment!
‘Wrong card!’
– Try again!!

Gosh - this is is always happening to me. Brilliant, Rhiannon...sorry this is so late, but I only just happened by it. Better late than never, most certainly;-)

Glad you enjoyed it, Tina! It was a bit of fun (and actually was from an incident my husband confessed to me ruefully. He is not one to forget his pin, and he really was baffled!)
