Poetic Bloomings, Life's a Beach, Picnic


Oh, We Love to Picnic 

Oh, we love to picnic! And this is what we’ll take:
Watermelon, chicken, and biscuits that flake,
Potato chips, pretzels, vegetables and rolls,

Rotini Salad, potato salad, Jell-O by the bowls,
Chocolate chip cookies like our grandmas make,

Ice water and lemonade (don’t forget to shake),
Hamburgers, condiments, plus sirloin steak.
We’ll cook them sizzling hot with glowing coals.
Oh, we love to picnic!

And what shall we eat it on?—make no mistake,
but remember blankets, flatware, paper cups and plates.
And let’s take the volleyball, the net and poles.
We’ll play a game or two, then go for some strolls.
But after we eat so much, it’s hard to stay awake.
Oh, we love to picnic!
