On the Battenkill
The river’s flow,
Steady and still.
Breathes let it go.
Feelings of loss
give way to peace.
In the river’s course
troubles may cease.
Pay heed to its story.
With help from its friends,
The river restored,
We share in its glory.
From a polluted
Run off for
Factories and mills.
A beautiful ribbon
Now winds through the hills.
