These days of warm winds, seltzer ‘neath the cork Hunger just to taste, finger foods without a fork My eyes gleam full of all this on my mind Spontaneous and gratifying craves defined The blanket spread among both fact and fiction Bluff bent trees discord a sheltered contradiction All around a gathering of what I’ve waited for Dabbling of all the colors that could ever pour Anticipation stirs its effervescent drink Kicking off my shoes, freely in the pink Deviled up or sandwiched a feast by all accounts Tempting just desserts in wicked good amounts Then full in the content of candy apple shine Spread out among the grass such fun by the design Copyright Kkh 5/6/04 |

This is more than a picnic... it speaks of fairs and carnivals, freedom and peace... a right to live... a blessing given to all of us... what a great poem! |

Oh I do enjoy picnics, and I enjoyed this too. Lovely TD Maree The clouds never expect it when it rains, but the sea, changes colours, but the sea, does not change. ~Stevie Nicks~ |
