On Weekends Every Now and Then

Now Pippi was a true adventurist type,
on weekends every now and then
she would like to relive her childhood
which included lots of mean pirates
and some nice enough horses
to take gentle rides through the countryside
and things like that;
and if she was really in a playful mood
she would take a handful of friends
to her secret treehouse
hidden deep in the enchanted forest
but always easy for her to find
when she was ready to have a good time,
and somehow it was always there
exactly where she had left it
fully stocked with delicious canned foods
like spinach and black beans, an endless supply
of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches,
and a fresh batch of hopes and dreams,
a weekend full of glorious days to get away
an endless forest of animals and friends to play,
other times she would visit Uncle Butter
or Aunty Jam who lived far away in another land,
but that's another tale still to tell.

Spinach goes with everything...well, almost anything. My dog, 'Pippi' won't eat it.
