On a Monday

'tis the week before the Fourth
and all through the store
walls are a-vibrating
with beauty galore

a gift for the holiday
for patriots like you
is Kate Ladd's night poppies
in red white and blue

the paintings are bright
next to Rita Baldwin's pastel hues
she makes summer less hot
in her lovely cool blues

down in Gerald Duke's booth
I know for sure
photos have flags flying
Independence Unfurled.

On a Monday,
Sharon
