PICNIC PARTY
All around the lake are dotted
Pleasant little spots like these,
Where we're sheltered, from the hot sun,
By the canopy and trees.
With our floppy hats as shelter
We can all enjoy the breeze.
Getting out our salad lunches
Making coffees, making teas.
Someone there has brought a sandwich.
Lovely! It's her usual....cheese.
Hope the insects don't come near us,
Flies, mosquitoes, even bees!
George has got his old hay-fever!
Here it comes! He's going to sneeze!
Is it swine-flu? George be careful!
Not in this direction PLEASE!

Another time, another place, another picnic here:

Haha - I love the poem... especially the part about swine flu! ;)
Such beautiful summer sunshine!
Just a beauty!
I can identify with this one, Brenda. What would our world be like without those picnics, ants, hay fever, cheese sandwiches, and all!
You sure do write a lot and you have a nice blog.
Thank you for this one. I am sorry, I didn't see you on the OSI for this week. I have one on the Poem Place blog, my Ruby Tuesday is on the Little Blog.
Cheers,

I am wondering if you were an English teacher before retirement...your poems just make me think you were! They are so darn cute! I love this picnic site...what a beautiful place.
