There are long curves of the meeting of the Potomac and the Shenandoah. There is the running water home of living fish and silver of the sun. The lazy flat rocks spread out browns for green and blue silver to run over. Mascots of silver circles move around Harpers Ferry. No wonder Tom Jefferson came here to sit with his proud red head writing notes on the great state of Virginia.
Borders hem the town, borders of Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland.
Be absent-minded a minute or two and you guess at what state you are in. Harpers Ferry is a meeting place of winds and waters rocks and ranges.
