Poem for the Rockaways: Seaside Garden of Hearts and Flowers – by Ed Broderick
Open to all of natures powers
Endures kanes and showers
Accepts the chill of deepest snow
Glories in the summers glow
A pure rainbow may be born
After the curse of a SANDY storm
Bows may have many ends
All full of hopes dreams and bends
Hundreds of us who have seen this
Pause Reflect and silently Wish
For our Bow’s end to fulfill
Our needs by GOD’S Holy Will
Stop visit enjoy the sight
Take it home to spend the night
Till the Sun sends it’s first ray
Return it then for another day
So others as they make their way
May enjoy it here in Rockaway
