1930 Delmar Poem

The below poem was published in the April 1930 Bi-State Weekly

DELMAR

Delmar where the hooting train
Pauses, then goes on again.
Placed where Calvert's sunny land
Bounds the war lord's fertile strand;
Maryland and Delaware
Delmar's pleasant dwellings share,
Where industrious lives are wrought
And Happiness, true wealth is sought.
Peaceful Delmar, pleasant place
Where Life keeps a modest pace
Not foregoing modern toys
But retaining old time joys.
Kindness and Security
Both are Delmar's surety
