For the Contest, "Just For Giggles"
One hot summer day long ago, My hubby and I thought we'd go to barbecue we accepted with glee by newlyweds, we got to know. I said we'd bring baked pork and beans, A salad of mixed garden greens, And also, we'd take A chocolate cake Plus six-pack of beer, by all means. Time came in the blink of an eye. We packed up our picnic supply. Arrived at their house, Just me and my spouse, The only ones who had come by. We walked to the back of the yard; And passed their guard dog with regard. They were so surprised Upset, they chastised, "Oh no, you have caught us off guard!" You see- in their pool, they were found In 'birthday suits' splashing around. "The picnic's next week They yelled with a shriek!" Embarrassed, we ran homeward bound!
