Community Poem

Each year, residents contribute to a Community Poem. Here is this year’s.

Fall is…
Migration.
Formations of geese,
Insects singing at night.

Chipmunks and squirrels scrambling.
Harvest,
Apples and pumpkins.

Loving the sun as it fades.
Leaves changing to red, orange and yellow,
The annual fashion show of colors,
The mustiness of the fallen leaves.

Walking the airline trail,
Hooking a salmon,
Crowds cheering young athletes —
Running, kicking, blocking.
A horse bouncing in the cool air.

Trick-or-treating,
Spooky season!
