On Boy found dead in Whitewater’s Mill Pond

Posted on January 19 at 8:10 p.m. ( Suggest removal )

The frozen water
Keeps its’ secret beneath the surface
Where not yet a man he is encased
To Mill’s Pond
He travels silently
Until noticed as he was
They came to begin the tragic rescue
To give him back to family
To remove him from his frozen grave
Nine years to his name
No more to give
A town stilled in its’ grief
Silently mourns
The Lilly on the pond
