Outdoor Dining

I ate in an outdoor shed today;

The cold did not stand in my way.

I wasn’t bothered by the noise

Of traffic which, at times, annoys.

 

Construction sounds, like drills and booms

Or buses spewing noxious fumes

Could not create the slightest dent

In my good mood, nor money spent

 

On mediocre lunchtime fare;

I was so happy to be there!

My friend and I, both bundled up,

Enjoyed our time to chat and sup.

 

My first time in an outdoor shed

Since Covid reared its ugly head

Was glorious because, to me,

It felt like how things used to be.
