I had a Covid picnic in the sun
(whose warmth was bright; it wasn’t all that cold)
at least a quarter mile from everyone

one fighting orange for Vitamin C
a mason jar of water: fluids forced
Ritz Crackers – all one really ever needs
DayQuil, store brand the company outsourced
picnic blanket, family Christmas gift
computer writing – for that healing lift!
