Poetry: Picnics

by Peta Ealing Cameron

Created on: July 31, 2009   Last Updated: August 09, 2010

The family is meeting up again, there is so many of us

A picnic by the seaside once again seems the only way

Aunts and uncles, cousins and nieces, nephews and the like


We could almost have our own football team

But some are old and slow or weak

Bert will bring the salads he does a mighty job

Lillian will bring the cakes and dips

Uncle John will bring his dog


There will be babies in strollers and teenagers with their music on their ears

Lots of them will be grandmas and grandpas, many in their eighties

It is always such a great day when all meet up again

It happens at least once a year
