TIME CAPSULE Its air-dried roots appeared not to be living As I spread them in the spade-square cavity Then watered them as though baptism giving And covered up the roots with South Bay clay. Yet within days the first leaves opened bravely, Like outsize flags on spindly crooked shafts, Riding on the west wind, bending safely, Above the meadow flowers and waving grass. What changes will the hands of fate deliver Before this sapling into maple grows? Who will seek its dappled shade beside the river, Or gather winter wood from fallen boughs? Though rooted in today, it is the future; I shall not live to see it at its height; But for a moment I was one with nature And sent a gift to days beyond my sight. | - Alan Whiteley NOTICE All enquiries regarding use of the Milford Town Hall should be directed to the County offices at 476-1159 SOUP HARBOUR STRINGS MUSICALE At the Neufelds' Barn, 1149 Kelly Road Friday, July 18th - 5 p.m. Come and enjoy a group of local amateur musicians making classical Walker's Greenhouse ANNUALS, PERENNIALS, SHRUBS, ROSES & HANGING BASKETS Come and check out our summer specials!
