Gala

17 5 5
                                    

Like the glittering crest of a tumbling wave,

it glides in to delighted children,

wading in the cool ocean swell.

A surprise party,

it enters to the sound of fife and drum—

then spreads like golden butter

on a corn cob—

this summer gala,

this glorious month of July.
