Excursions Poem by R.Benjamin Abate

We were walking
By the amphitheater
At Clay park

While everyone
Was watching
The Irish dancing girls

We stopped to
Watch them-
Dancing in their

Dresses with
Irish family
Crests

& You said
'We should make Irish family crests & wear them to a party we have! '

I thought it was a great
Idea-

The girls danced into
The night

& We ended up having
That party

But we didn't
Make the crests-

We dreamt of
Excursions together

Many of which
We wouldn't venture
