[hometext] => on this 4th of July this is what it is like where I live......Maine is called Vacationland and for good reason
[bodytext] => ___________________ The hottest day of the summer or so it seems Perfect for celebrating, cookouts and parades An afternoon at the beach, crowded with tourists All the pretty girls in bikinis and the boys watching them Mothers chase after toddlers near the water’s edge While we doze in out lounge chairs turning brown Working up a sweat before we take a swim This hallmark holiday ushers in tourist season Officially, they are counted crossing the border into Maine SUV’s loaded with summer toys and towing boats Minivans, and old sedans can’t wait to get to Vacationland The seaside resorts are bumper to bumper with out of state plates Up at the lake, our little village has grown three fold From now until Labor Day they will stay and play Jetskis, tubing, kayaks, and mountain bikes On rainy days they head into the village Where eager shopkeepers greet them Maine t-shirts, hats and sweatshirts Reminders of Vacationland to adorn Flatlanders as we like to call them, affectionately of course.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
