On the 4th of July, Saint Louis puts on a fair that lasts all weekend. Each night they shoot off a full fireworks display. So today, I went with friends and family to the fair and saw the fireworks. I composed a Senryu and a Haiku while observing the festivities. Here they are for you:
Thousands of people
Swaying and dancing at night
The sounds of the fair
Brightness in the night
Reflection of light from fire
Bursting in the sky
