Poem

La Conner is such a pretty small town

That has grown and has changed for many years.

One of the first settlements in the state,

It is so much more than it first appears.



Many buildings from the earlier town

Have been recorded as historic places.

Residents point them out to visitors

With unconcealed pride upon their faces.



The town is surely an artist's mecca.

You'll find them smocked and painting everywhere.

But no painting quite catches the aura

That permeates La Conner's ocean air.



It has become a yearned for destination,

Where vacationers determine to come.

Visitors fill its one shopping street in summer

And keep coming when the summer is done.



Some shops are stocked with finest of fashions,

Where every woman is eager to shop.

Fine art attracts through other big windows.

You'll find that each place is a worthwhile stop.



The town is perched upon wide hillside,

With channel of water on West Side.

North, South and East meet the big fertile fields.

Town of La Conner is contained inside.



Fine yachts and fishing boats drop their anchors

At docks located on the Channel side.

One can almost feel the town's slow rocking

At exact moments of  incoming tide.



The lovely high Rainbow Bridge spans the Channel

Connecting La Conner and Swinomish

Indian Reservation across the way.

On either bank one could just stop to fish.
