| THERE ONCE WAS AN ON-LINE SITE
THAT ANNOUNCED LOCAL NEWS AND EVENTS.
WHOSE EDITOR AND WIFE MADE SURE THE LAYOUT WAS RIGHT
AND SWEATED THE DETAILS EACH NIGHT.
THAT EDITOR AND WIFE KNEW FROM THE START
THAT IT WOULD BE A LABOR OF LOVE FROM THE HEART
SO THEY GATHERED THE FACTS AND KEPT A CHART
OF ITEMS ATTENDED ON THEIR PART.
WHEN FIRST SEEN ON LINE
SOME THOUGHT IT A TRICK
BUT IT GREW AND SPREAD OVER TIME
THE NEWS AND REPORTS CAME THICK.
THE WEBSITE RAN ON A SHOESTRING
HELD TOGETHER WITH BAILINGWIRE
BUT YEAR AFTER YEAR
IT SURVIVED BECAUSE THE EDITORS DID NOT TIRE.
NOW THAT SOURCE
MAY HAVE RUN ITS COURSE
FOR 20 YEARS IS A LONG TIME
TO NEVER RUN OUT OF RHYME.
IT IS SAID THAT NOTHING IS MISSED
UNTIL IT IS NO MORE
WE SHALL SEE IF IT HOLDS TRUE
WHEN THIS ONLINE SITE IS THROUGH.
SHALL WE EVER WITNESS AGAIN
A WEB SITE OF SUCH COMMITMENT AND PURPOSE
THAT FOR 20 YEARS HAS SO WELL SERVED US?
