Library “Chain Verse”

June 4, 2017July 23, 2016 by Ann Russell, Technology Librarian

Summer at the lake

Lake of dreams
Dreams of paradise
Paradise sky
Sky full of stars
Stars in my eyes
Eyes of darkness
Darkness before dawn
Dawn over the Kennebec
Kennebec County wildflowers
Wildflowers across America
America America
America the beautiful
Beautiful mystery
Mystery woman
Woman of the inner sea
Sea glass
Glass castle
Castle in the sky
Sky so close
Close your eyes, hold hands
Hands that are not there
There goes Maine!
Maine and her people
