A Blanket On The Ground

Gentle rolling waves against a river bank
Were the only sounds that could be heard
Once again their picnic was over
Folding the blanket not uttering a word   
 
The evening they had spent was pure delight 
Beneath moss laden trees of green
Vowing to one another that they would return
To share the greatest love ever seen
 
Strolling hand in hand down a secluded path
Stopping briefly for a kiss and an embrace
Recalling their first romantic interlude
As their hearts pounded and began to race
 
Their days became clouded with confusion
Needing two incomes as husband and wife
Each longed for their stressful days ending
To return to a romantic family life
 
Their times had not always been blissful
Encountering problems from day to day
Now they asked if their love would survive
Only the good Lord above could say
 
No longer spoken were the words 'I love you'
Or I miss and long to hold you near
Knowing the flame was now flickering
Losing one another was their greatest fear
 
On a summer afternoon they decided to talk
To discuss where their love had gone wrong
Their timing could not have been better
As over the waves came their wedding song
 
The special words each heart did now hear
As they held out their hand to each other
Knowing exactly what it was they must do
Picnic basket and once more become lovers
 
That evening came alive with a full smiling moon
And the sparkle of the stars from above 
Shadows danced merrily throughout the woods 
As they joined the happy couple in love
