Ghost Town In two hotels, they lithely creep. The ghostly tourists come to sleep. And now, shut down, forever still are two, once-bustling lumber mills. The pub, the band and so much more, at least one well- stocked general store. A city, once so proud and cocky, like Chicago or Milwaukee. Now quiet, hushed, and filled with sand beneath the surface, once so grand. No songs, no schools, no talk, no sport, though once it was a Great Lakes port. It was a town that lost its luck, a town just south of Saugatuck. And now it's sunk beneath the shore, the ghostly town of Singapore. by Denise Rodgers Poem *Poem about a town that was a prosperous lumbering town, but the supply ran out and the town was deserted. It is now covered by Lake Michigan Sand Dunes. poetry.html
