Festival Freckles

I’m about to join the fun, go out and collect
some days of sun and freckles, what the heck
Festival comes to us but four days once a year
so come and join in the fun, and bring sunscreen, hear?

the atmosphere is more than fluff
there’s art, and music, all that stuff
young and old join in the throng
and all will dance to calypso’s song

fine art shows and crafts alike
you’ll find the mummers riding bikes
art patrons come, from east to west
but eating great food is just the best!

bierocks, chicken, catfish, gumbo,
fry bread, drumsticks, sausage, pastas,
onions in a blossom, hummus, more
deserts will come through hidden doors

almonds, puddings, ribeye steaks
egg rolls, rangoons, great lemonades,
cookies, cheesecakes, cobblers a la mode
walk a lot, you won’t feel like a toad!

bring the kids, they’ve their own place
storytellers, artists will make-up their face
you can leave them in their own ring
they’ll play all day and learn to sing!

music all around the park, come, and give a hear
you can’t help give a skip as it sounds so clear
snap your fingers, and smiles abound
it’s the best festival in this whole darn town!

River Fest! It’s come again, and it’s been around a while
twenty-six years of memories, guaranteed great smiles!
I’m about to join the fun, go out and collect
some days of sun and freckles, what the heck!

Karilea~

I wanna go....this sounds like so much fun.....I am not sure FL offers anything such as this, though it does offer a lot of other things....but something this simple would be relaxing and fun to attend.....HAVE A GREAT TIME!!

I would rather have one breath of his hair,
one kiss of his mouth,
one touch of his hand
than an eternity without it.

You really know how to make a person wish
they were somewhere else but HERE>>>>

I won't wish you badly by saying I hope you
gain 5 pounds, or anything like that...

As John Wayne once said....

This sounds like fun, Karilea...are you really going to eat all of that food?
Its actually making me quite hungry, and wishing I was there to join in the fun.
