The Avenue

Summer will be coming to a close,
 
then fall will follow right behind.
 
The Avenue still has some days left,
 
smiles~joy for everyone.
 
Saturday will be the cloud eating contest,
 
little Billy has won the last three years.
 
Blue ribbon for first place,
 
come and do your very best
 
Next week is the community flowery covered dish,
 
bring your best flowers for all to eat.
 
The first Saturday in Sept,
 
all dogs need to show up.
 
The Avenue,
 
will have the dog show of the year.
 
Bring your pampered pooch,
 
all washed~cut and dressed like a cat.
 
With fall just around the corner,
 
The Avenue will change.
 
Purple pumpkins will be everywhere,
 
as people put on their bright colored sweaters.

I think a nice dish of violets covered in marshmallow clouds would be perfect, poetically speaking…Delice

AWW..the changing of the seasons. Don't they miss them in sunny climates? I saw the images in your poem as I read. I used to live in Vermont and their Fall was my favorite season Thanksgiving never stressful, or expensive. Oceans here in Ct turn to yummy fall too. Wouldn't it be fun to eat a real flower dish, rosy, honeysuckle pie I'd like:)
