All the Good News about Port Sanilac!
|
Greetings!
Spring has sprung From the emerging snowdrops to the beautiful clusters
of blue crocus
startled by the dawn
of a thousand daffodils
blessed
with the sights of springLead out to our gardens and yards
where we visited with neighbors
watched kids pedal by
and looked out upon the Huron blue
speckled and spotted
with boats enjoying the dawn of early fish.
Most Sincerely,
Jennifer Powell
Coordinator, Port Sanilac DDA
