THE PICNIC, a poem

         The blanket was spread

          on a farmer’s field

          off a country road

          one hot August day

          for my love and me

          The buffet of marriage

          to part or continue

          was laid before us

          the choice was easy

          for my love and me

          Selected each other

          for a prolonged banquet

          spiced by an ecstasy

          that lasted a lifetime

          for my love and me
