Summer Fair Poem by Tajma Hall

The summer fair
they turned us to friends
grade a glad list us
more of a cold night
summer missed us

than dates soon illicit
the memory in the brain
basil that fits, turn in sleep
more summer will
about a ferris
late evening
summer night

day broke and rose us
brandy and color
spirit this light dense
rainfall
showers the cumbersome
sedate a moon in show
treats shine as mirrors
slowly turning to the white of snow

pale pumpkin
fall blends the seed shells
slang tickets buy the seashore
coupled hands
the team of fresh peanuts
covering the ground
in fits like rain

a day that is easy
using the ground as a blanket
no blanket
no bed
rest our easy summer
