Seated on the ground, a woman in a white dress and pink flowered hat is kissing a man in a gray pinstripe suit. His hat is among the flowers next to him. The earth is covered with pink and yellow wildflowers, there are trees behind them, and the moon illuminates the scene. The print at the bottom reads, "There are those who say "It's a crime to play / We should all be in bed at nine" / But the man who said "we're a long time dead" / Hit the nail on the head for mine."
