Premium Member Zeus Fought For Picnicking Rights

Zeus fought the elves and the gargoyles for Stonehenge picnicking rights
Stonehenge laughed at this, thinking Zeus was insane
And of course he might have been but who in their right mind
will tell that to a god?
Even if it is a little god
not the big one.

Premium Member Satin Summer


Satin summer sundays.
With the young children.
Picnicking in the shade 
Nana takes them to swim.

Watching while they play.
There growing so big.
Those memories we've  made.
Are, a most treasured gift.

Sewsaws and swings.
The roundabout spins.
As we reminisce.
Upon satin summer bliss.

Thunderclouds

Impassioned foreboders
Each of which projects
A fearsome sky
Of trees' whistly lead-ball rained
Scourging effects.
Cruel, torturous. And yet
Fine with it, I.

Impatient erasers
As streets flash pale in
Quick banishment
Of what there neath, lazy, lawned
Lie picnicking.
Again accepting. Unless
As one, glass-bent!

P.S.

I used to live in a town where you were allowed to jog as long as you didn’t sweat.  Anything perspiration-related in public was forbidden.

Premium Member Captain Wiggles Nursery Rhyme

Captain Wiggles 

Captain wiggles can’t sit still.
He wiggles and giggles on top of the hill.
He jumps around, always acting silly.
Even on days when it feels quite chilly.

Captain wiggles loves to Have fun.
He laughs and dances while on the run.
On the playground or picnicking in the park.
He giggles all day and long after dark.

Premium Member Honeyed Days On a Hill

My favorite place, is on a knoll above the meadow,
Under a dogwood tree, wrens flying in the dayglow,
Reading, picnicking, or enjoying the midday snooze,
Or seizing upon canvas, the butterscotch and blues.

Gay blooms crowd the summer, to daydreams' delight,
And butterflies roam so slowly, towards moonlight!
Bronzed days are lustrous, in a precint of silence-
The sun rose blush at dawn, and it hasn't set since!

Premium Member Autumn's Reign

Gingko’s golden leaves
Intermingling maple red
Glorious carpet
Strolling through autumn’s return
Mesmerized and delighted.

Chrysanthemum blooms 
Vine maple dotting hillsides
Lingering roses
Color, color everywhere
Last call to outdoor dining

Pilfering raccoons
Raiding cornfields and orchards
Laughing at farmers
Indian summer picnicking 
Last hurrah before winter

Premium Member Picnicking In Paris

The men are handsome in their suits and ties 
The women casually nude
picnicking in Paris in the 1860's. 
This must be the new way
Parisians are cultured
Perhaps this is what we should all be doing
I stare at the freedom of the women
They are the lucky ones.
I kick off my knickers;  I pull my dress over my head
Loud yelling commences
A museum guard runs up and covers me in a hazmat suit
He leads me into a room with other women who are all nude 
Apparently we all saw the same canvas
