In My Small Town

  
     No riots today in my small town
         No protestors or police around
     Everywhere I look, peace and quiet
         On Main Street, three dogs lie down

     Town’s not for sale ~ you cityfolk can’t buy it

I live in the country although there are small towns near me. I will just say, where I live, there would be no rioters.

my town, too, is small and quiet. I like it that way.
