River Called Campbell

 

The city is fine

And can be fun,

But give me a small

Town on The Island,

Where everyone knows

Your business or

Thinks that they do,

Most say good morning

Though some never do,

Everyone’s kind

Except the feuding few,

You can see

The stars, the moon,

The noon sun seems

To shine just for you,

The waves wash

The midnight stones

Like lovers alone,

That magic time

When most problems

Don’t matter,

The deer all smile

And raccoons chatter,

Everyone knows

We’re in this

Thing together,

You can talk to

The mayor

Spill your mind,

If us by chance

You’re trying to find,

Look for a river

Called Campbell.
