Snowflakes Suspended in the Air at Gravesend

Does it begin here?
At Avenue U
There are snowflakes in the air
Illuminating

Six pointed centerpieces
are attached between the streetlights
tied to power poles.

The strands light up U
better than the lamps at night
rivaling the stores.

At West 8th

From West Fourth to Ninth
It’s an annual practice
for Christmas seasons

The neighborhood had
Gravesend Chamber of Commerce
to handle the lights

At Sports Fever

Today, Sports Fever
coordinates the lighting
said employee Dan.

Fifty years it’s been.
the program has been endowed
by small businesses.

Sal Mar Studios
believes in this tradition
‘spite this economy

The cost? Six hundred
or seven hundred dollars
per snowflake lighting.

For the month of December
Enjoy, why don’t you.
