Canvas Booths

The outdoor art fair has displays

In canvas booths that zip.

When setting up for two days straight,

I guess it saves a trip.

 

I don’t know what security

Is there for overnight,

Though thieves could slice the canvas,

Even if it’s zippered tight.

 

The booths provide protection more

For rain-related times,

The artists likely worried

About damage more than crimes.

 

Today, the second of the fair,

Was raining from the start.

I walked past many zipped-up booths

And couldn’t see much art.

 

Predictions were for sunny weather

In the afternoon.

I'm sure for all the artists

Sunshine couldn’t come too soon.

 

I’m sure some picked up all their work

And didn’t stick around,

While others waited, hoping that

Their business might rebound.
