Picnic
all these kids on vacation
it was their summer
their vacation
and they mixed in with parents
and down by the river
with waterfall one kid fell
in and one parent thought
well, that river is pretty gnarly,
if I jump in after the kid, which
I will do over saving myself, it
might not do any good, it
could even make matters worse
A pensive hesitation,
then she popped out of the rushing
waters and he saw her, and
quickly he was able to grab
her and bring her ashore.
And all the wide expanses
in the pristine Great Lakes
back then.
We ate bag sandwiches
and drank Faygo Pop
and later on nestled
in a dank cabin
And there is a lot of
ta do, you have to
trudge all this stuff along
and make an effort
sure, life can be tough
but if you figure that much
why not go the whole
how many yards...
Peace!
