Pieces of the Present Abide - The Life of the Place
Movements
Words by Khaetidawne and Brendan Quirk
We present here a Song of the Life of Our Place, in seven movements.
The Pieces and Places of our Present - and soon past memories -
The visions of home and the glorious small towns that surround us
Twenty years in the making - this is Our Place
We look now to our future; a new house, and a new Place we’ll embrace.
Pieces of the Present Abide - The Life of the Place (Main Street)
The obvious choice for where to begin is, of course, with a stroll down Main Street(s). This is not intended to be a directory or travel guide, but rather just a sampling, in order to get a feeling, of the heart(s) of The Place we will explore.
The road swoops wide, in, and around
Leads through a typical small town -
Come with us and see such a Place where we can be
Ourselves, authentic, secure, prosperous, and free.
on a serious note, - your images and poetry have sensitively presented a place that you clearly love, if we don't live there, we might imagine it would be nice to do so.

Very nice image. I like the mistiness in the background.
On a non-serious note, during a motorcycle trip around MN, WI, MI and ON, just before my sophomore year, I spent one very drunken night during freshman week at Mayville State.
