The Millstone River
In the middle of this bustling town
There is a piece of heaven, serenely so.
A place where one can relax and sit down
On benches placed there to watch the river flow.
Around this piece of river a park was made
To showcase the waterfall in all it's grace.
White frothy waterfall turns to river of jade.
You will find nowhere more lovely than this place.
The manmade duck ponds, gardens and trails
Are a feature of pride for local towns folk,
But against this river God created... it pales
And often of it, by pen and word, I've spoke.
