I loved the way this week's poems about summer food so well reflected the people posting. My mom's was so Detroit:
Food is best with jazz
on the side, Detroit Jazz
Festival - yummy!

And Desiree's was so... vegetarian:
Summertime food of
the gods is okra. Perfect
fried little nuggets.

The Spanish Medievalist's was so... you know, Spanish:
Tapas, cerveza,
Sitting in the shade is nice,
Pass me the olives.

Christine's was evocative of where she lives:
Farm stand is open
Homemade ice cream everywhere
A fav'rite is corn.

And this anonymous one made me know they are in a good place:
Farmer’s market fare
Berries, peaches, nectarines
Colorful, juicy.
