Accessible
The longed-for goal we have come to prize,
as we patiently learned to negotiate,
the route familiar to our mind and eyes,
to enter and our aims facilitate.
Shop local, was our byword as we sought,
community, our fulfilling goal locate,
or just the intersection where we ought,
our need for lunch or dinner to satiate.
To enter the municipality,
the merchant and the services we need,
and feel he air of hospitality,
to agencies directions we could heed.
We began to learn early in the game,
patience with development is a must,
and, besides the beauty of acclaim,
the new requirements and ways to trust.
Oh, say! With cones down, and detour signs,
and crisp white lines marking the lanes,
with street lights and traffic light, that shines,
it's easy to forget confusion's pains.
Just like a dream come true, the waiting's end,
the spacious, well marked pavement--beautiful;
Just like a dream or game of 'Let's Pretend'.
Our city-- Oh! surprise--Accessible.
Well, come to Amery, and see the way,
you're welcomed and accommodated here.
At your service every night and day,
accessible to our hearts throughout the year.
