Olive Tree

I told the man about how 

I'd like to travel to Greece,

how I wanted to pick 

from the olive trees

he told me about 

how he founded an 

Italian restaurant and 

how he makes his own

he said that there's groves

nearby, he said that I should go 

he gave me a jar with 

the date written as 1/11

it took over a year for the 

olives to finally be done

and I talked to him the 

other day in the morning,

he asked me how the 

olives were and honestly,

I was scared to try them 

in case of food poisoning
