Everyone have a safe, but fun Labor Day Holiday Weekend

Labor Day Weekend

by Debi Pick Marquette



A three~day weekend holiday

The end of all the summer play

It's one last chance to get away

And this last fling is Labor Day



They'll pack the kids, the dog and boat

And all the things that help them float

No television or remote

And they hope they won't need a coat



With water far as they can see 

It's fun to fish, tube, swim and ski 

They'll make it a big fun party

Their one weekend that is work-free



A picnic and a barbecue

Potato salad, chicken too

There's paper plates, no glass will do

Some water, pop, and beer~a few



Great memories that they'll make then

When camped in the North Wood's PlayPen

For so many women and men

 Tuesday, go back, to work again
