The
secret of Ammannsville
lies in its sweet stillness
as if the world had passed it by
and left it alone to be forgotten
Alone to be itself
a place of soft sounds
and precious solitude
evoked in statues
tombstones
cedar trees
and songbirds
the simplicity of the past
Just a bend in the road
a one lane place
a church
a hall
a cemetery
that's all there is
For me
that's all there needs to be
let it stay
like it is
forever.
