July
John Updike
Bang-bang! Ka-boom!
We celebrate
Our national
Independence date,
The Fourth, with
Firecrackers
and
The marching of
The Legion Band.
America:
It makes us think
Of hot dogs, fries,
and Coke to drink.
The shade is hot
The little ants
Are busy,
but
Poor Fido pants.
And Tabby dozes
In a pool
Of fur she sheds
To keep her cool.
What makes sitting by a lake so lovely?
We found a shady spot in the grass at Lake Wingra.
We brought pop, sandwiches and a wrap, peanuts and a seven layer bar.
The fancier food was picked up at Collectivo coffee on Monroe.
The weather was perfection.
It was peaceful, relaxed and pretty.
Such a nice day.
Encourage one another,
Donna
