The picnic

The picnic

Fried chicken smells so tasty on your lap  

 Let me spread the blanket for the feast

The sun is bright in our eyes-- sit beside me my love

 Gaze the flowing brook from under shady tree

Hard lemonade cools on ice-- so come for a drink  

  Pour your glass to the brim

 We will fill the air with laughter today, and

 Know the ways of black birds as they fly

Singing as irreverent sailors;

Allowed to put away the thoughts of war for awhile

Suddenly I can see the wings on your shoulders

 Soft contentment in your eyes,

Bliss has taken up residence in cool silence

 Your smile inspire me to feel the winds’ direction

Oh yes! 

-Your chicken is delicious

 Toast to the magic of the sun and wind on this perfect day
