By the riverside she loved
pecans with apple pie
strawberry's and ice cream
babies delight in ecstacy
each an orphan,
to the moment
waiting to eat this treat

across the lake they all stood
belly's of laughter they filled
each other as they looked
clouds above them would
rain, but umbrellas rest
as they complain

watching them now, i sing
wait for the button to press
and walk off in the rain
my feet clap the mud,
to wash it with the same
wake to the after
and there by give there claim

this is lovely..

i especially liked the second part:
"across the lake they all stood
belly's of laughter they filled..."

makes me appreciate the simple joys of life..
