RUBY, NY -- Not All of Summer
- James Krueger, Ruby, NY 9/06Not all of Summer is early August
Some is late September
When gold gathers in the chilly hills
Scattered
Freely in the wake of aspen winds
No one in this town clamors for gold
The green of a single dollar does fine
For them
First is gold
Then comes it’s kin
When silver winter settles in
This silver’s
Not something
That’s yearned for by them
