That would certainly have been a memorable church picnic. This has to be one of the top contenders for the drink poetry contest. It sounds so possible; I wonder how many times it happened in real life.

    Hi Carol!! Thanks so much for reading this silly spiked punch poem. Sometimes it is fun to do crazy and silly ones to steer away from those serious ones all the time.
    Thanks for your awesome comments and having a little fun with me.

Very creative and quite possible. It's happened before I'm sure, probably will again. Nice rhyming throughout, this is a great contest entry. Best of luck to you.

Oh my... that's something to picture! Can just envision all the proper ladies indulging in their after church lemonade... that never had ever tasted this good before!ð??? Would be a hoot for everyone to try and discover who done it! Great fun to think about and thanks for sharing this with us.

    You are very welcome and deserving of the stars and review, Debi. You have a gift with words and rhyme! I think you could write a page in the phone book and make it poetic!

This funny poem definitely fits that writing prompt. Here is a revealing stanza:
I wanted to do crazy flips
And while I'm in the air
To see if I can take more sips
And not spill anywhere
That definitely indicates it's not your normal lemonade! Sounds like someone wanted to get even with someone at that picnic.

What a cute ending. It had me smiling. I thought at first you were talking about tequila. That stuff will trip you our

Great stanzas in 8/6 Debi. The 2nd last line has the accents on the syllables off. Check the words "adult" and "picnic"
Otherwise all is flawless and an enjoyable read.
Best wishes Debi!
Take care and enjoy your weekend!
Luv&stuff,

    Ooh, Katie, you are so sweet. And yes, I wondered about that line too. So if you have a suggestion, that would be great. But, lol, can you imagine if I would have left the word adult out, what I would have been in for?
    The way it was, there were just a couple people that took it a little too serious and said someone could have gotten hurt. And for the life of me, aren't we all writers and suppose to use our imaginations? This was completely fiction and I just knew if I didn't add the adult, I would have been in more trouble than the one who spiked the lemonade. Haha! So do you have a suggestion for that line and keeping the word adult in. After all, without it there will be hell to pay. Lol..
