Sacramento

SUNDAY mornings and sunsets at their very best

AND my neighbors were among the very best people

COMMONALITY and Community embrace her atmosphere

REALISTS make room for both optimists and pessimists

ATTITUDES tended to mix with a sense of balance

MORE like home to me than was my birth home

EVENING heat often surrendered to Delta Breezes

NEVER thought that I would ever leave her until 2021

TODAY, reluctantly, I'm learning to live without her

Of places I've lived, for 35 years, Sacramento was the best
