By kenp

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

A Town's Lament Death came, and with it went: Logging trucks to pay the rent, homes for shelter, monies for families content, business for the anchor, mills that needed workers. Death came, and with it went: the life of a small town. Where did it go? Ask the Liberal government! Written December 17th, 2001 © on Dec 17 2001 06:03 AM PST   0 • 9
