In observance of Independence Day, City Hall and non-essential city services will be closed Friday, July 4. Trash and recycling pickup will occur as usual.
The tall trees loom above.
Sparse silver branches
trace the frosted sky.
Their icy breath,
but a whisp in the cold crisp air.
Longing to be remembered,
wishing to be forgotten,
the countless silver trees sing their winter song.
Susan’s Thoughts
A simple yet sensory poem that makes one feel the chill of winter nights and see the unique beauty of bare trees.
