The Vegetarian Picnic

Wednesday, June 5, 1996 - 10:00

We went to the vegetarian picnic

and we had a lovely time.

I stood on a slug

which I thought was a bug

cause I needed that particular rhyme.

We ate the mayonnaise

and had tomato sauce.

I had a muffin

did a lot of huffing

and had the same

for the second course.

We drank the perrier water

studiously avoiding the wine.

Yes, we were doing mighty fine.

Someone mentioned the weather

some fool complained about the heat.

I got confused

widely abused

when I mentioned meat

cause I needed that particular rhyme.
