A DAY'S PLEASURE
The family off for a
rattling good time.
Everybody's doing it.
All fixed up for the
boat ride.
Children in arms free.
All aboard.
"I'll see you later."
Three minds with but
a single thought.
"Ham sandwiches --
buttered popcorn --
cigars - cigarettes."
A forced acquaintance.
The hold-up at the
crossroads.
"Will you kindly get
back to where you
same from."
"Stupid ass!"
Tar.
"How you have changed."
"You have been sticking
around here long
enough."
The end of a perfect day.
