Shannon Monroe - A Picnic in the Meadow

2014-11-07 11 Dailymotion

As I step into the meadow, it’s actually quite a scene.
The pearly white flowers are dancing in the wind.
The hot sun’s beating down upon me, the bumpy grass beneath my feet.
As I set up for a picnic, a beautiful, soft rabbit came hopping to me.
I reached into my basket for a hard, orange carrot, and I gave it to him, it happily hopped away.
I reached into my basket again and I took out a still smoking hamburger out of it.
When I was finished, I took out a juicy, sweet watermelon.
When I got up to take a walk in the woods, the birds were singing loudly, the bee’s humming loudly and the hummingbird’s wing’s sweetly beating.
Every now and again, I thought that a pecking woodpecker
Would fly away and come back again.
I must have walked a mile before heading back to the site.
When I got back, there was an angry bear eating the rest of my food.
I just stood there afraid that the bear would attack me.
Luckily it did not see me.
When it was done it ran back into the woods, why? I have no idea.
I started packing up, but I stayed just long enough to witness the most beautiful sunset ever! ! !
A perfect ending to a perfect day!
