Town Fair












Candy apples and parades,
two of my favorite things.
Hot, muggy days,
fluffy white clouds,
hoping it all never fades.


Firetrucks, horns and police cars
politicians and bands too;
kids and applause,
candy and smiles;
waving of the stripes and stars.


Carnivals and ferris wheels,
corn on the stick, hot dogs too,
all make me feel
kid's simple joy 
and falling head over heels. 


Love on a warm, summer day
is the best way to spend it;
all day in play,
strolling along
down the carnival midway.


The day's imprint will hang on,
memories will settle in;
events are done.
Sunshine fading,
We definitely had fun.
