TOUR LONG
ISLAND
Along the Long Island cove
It’s a treasure trove
Find a tapestry of sites
Visiting days or nights
Robert Moses master plan
Map of Long Island land
Long Island plays host
To beaches on its coast
All that nature creates
Gardens, parks, lakes
Lush Long Island hues
Greens, browns, blues
Lighthouse at Montauk Points the way
To where the Ducks team play
Party on at Jones Beach Park
Stay for fireworks after dark
All together can be found
Along the Long Island Sound
Tour Long Island and roam
The place I call home

Nominated White Castle Story
Cravers - Hall of Fame
We are
loyal customers of White Castle. We got way back to Hollis Queens, NY in the
1960's where my husband and I grew up. We both went to the White Castle on
Francis Lewis Blvd. but didn't know each other back than.
Now we go together
to White Castle after being married 30 years - life is a full circle after all.

Long Island – Love It or Leave
It
Published South Bay Newspaper
In the early morning all of Long Island’s problems are
softened by nature’s sunlight reminding me why I love Long Island. There in the
sunlight I see hope for the future.
If only Long Islanders awoke to try to make a difference
and leave Long Island better than how they found it. Alas, Long Island can be a lonely place for
some separated by cultural, income or status disparity that builds fences in our
neighborhoods.
The lost of home town roots breeds young people’s escape
moving away from Long Island. Perhaps
the absence of housing does not welcome all. Only when there is a home for
everyone, will Long Island’s future continue to evolve, grow and
prosper.
My hope is that all Long Islanders can join together
across neighborhood boundaries to love our hometown. Then we shall keep people
on Long Island – for no one leaves a place they love. The choice is yours: Long
Island – love it or leave it.

Welcome to the
Neighborhood
Dear
Editor:
I
write in reference to the resident’s objection to projected new site for Stop
and Shop at Golding Avenue, West Babylon in their neighborhood, mindful of
congested traffic or intrusion.
Having lived through a similar
incident on Long Island; I can relate and present another viewpoint. In my
youth, growing up in Massapequa Park, I
lived in the vicinity of the projected new site for proposed Sunrise Mall.
It was evident then, even from a
child’s observance, was the community and neighbors resistance for the Mall complex.
Residents protest impending traffic and disturbance would trespass our idyllic suburban
neighborhood.
Representatives of the Sunrise Mall
assured opponents there would be no intrusion, commotion or gridlock traffic.They
cited the entrance to the Mall as Carman’s Road, which would confine traffic. The
residential housing is behind Carman’s Road - similar to West Babylon
resident’s approximation adjacent to the Route 109 entrance for Stop and Shop.
Pursuant to the grand opening of the
Sunrise Mall, the Mall representative’s pledge of assurance and serenity proved
right. Our neighborhood was not hindered or infringed upon.
In fact, my family and all the
neighboring families became frequent patrons of the Mall, appreciative of the
convenient proximity to a shopping center. The new neighbor was eventually
welcome with open doors. Welcome to the neighborhood!

It happened at the World’s Fair
At the center of the Unisphere
I went to see the whole world
Taking the trip as a young girl
Passport to world countries history
All country’s Pavilions told a story
Blasting off to futurama space age
Premier at the World’s Fair stage
A ticket to ride around the world
Traveling on Ford’s cars Skyway swirl
Gateway to the future at GE Progress Land
Drooling at the Belgium waffle stand
Michelangelo’s original ‘‘Pieta’ is shown
To be viewed at the Vatican Pavilion
Painting my own original artwork spin
Clasping on the Heinz plastic pickle pin
I took home memorabilia souvenirs
That I still have today somewhere
The 1965 World’s Fair said it all
It’s a small world after all

HOME OF LONG ISLAND’S INDEPENDENCE
Published Great South Bay Magazine
1776 Battle of Independence
A time of history penance
Stage on Long Island land
Under Washington’s command
Defiant battle’s cries wrath
Trail the forsaken patriot’s path
Waging at Long Island coast
Independence was once lost
British troops sought to overtake
Thrashing Long Island’s landscape
British victory of one battle score
Yet, America ultimately wins the war
Liberty and freedom triumphed ever since
Home of Long Island’s Independence
