Walking Into An Art Exhibition Outside

A long street closed
     To all traffic
     Time for a sale
     From all the stores
     On this long street

     Tables just outside
     Items on display
     For everyone
     Lots of choices
     To choose from

     There is an area
     Where artist set up
     To paint a scene
     Splashed on canvas

Hello Judy Ball, I use to live in a small town. It was also slowly changing. Small towns should remain small. Some people like to live in small areas.Enjoy your evening my friend.

Reminds me so much of art fairs in San Francisco. What a delight they were, as is this. People need money to live or else they will go hungry. Cheers to the store owners! Panagiota xoxo
